I suspect Bob Crow's analysis - that this is a bit of kite-flying - is
probably on the money.
How could we ever have driverless trains? There'd be no one to shut the
doors at Kennington just as you're rushing to change trains from the
Bank to Charing Cross platform.
Or at Finsbury Park when you want to change from the Piccadilly line to
the Victoria line. Mind you I am sure that the line controllers could
achieve the same with judicious use of CCTV cameras.
You evidently don't have faith in the ability of machines to inflict that
kind of suffering on people. And yet according to your headers, you're a
Windows user. Most odd.
