Default Daily Mail story (was where to see the steam runs on the Underground?)

Which do we think will happen first:

- he decides that he can take the train after all, maybe copying the
Deputy PM and using a less obtrusive black or brown box

- he "decides to spend more time with his family" to use a time-honoured
phrase


Or he travels by train, and the Daily Mail then runs a story headlined
"Fury, outrage (etc) as minister looks at sensitive documents on a
public train where criminals, immigrants, single mothers and gays might
see them, when he could be travelling by car allowing him to read them
securely"....
