As the London Underground unions hark back to their stone-age practices and continue with plans to strike next week, the Gorse Fox wonders whether it would ultimately save money to replace all of the rolling stock with unmanned trains, and the station platforms with screened access like they have on (parts of?) the Jubilee Line.

Bob Crow, their leader, reminds the Gorse Fox of “Red Robbo” from the 70s who almost single-handedly destroyed the indigenous car industry. Bob Crow is like a harpooned whale, thrashing about trying to damage everyone he can. A throwback, and a man 40 years out of date.
