Why is that the this is always presented as a balance between:

People out on the town late on Friday/Saturday night

vs.

People who start work early on Saturday/Sunday morning

What about the large number of people who finish work between 12:30am
and 1:30am? Most restaurant workers, many workers in
theatres/cinemas/bars? Why do they never come in to the equation?

Speaking from the sharp end (as it were) I think later running is a
terrible idea. We cope with enough drunks on a Friday and Saturday
night
as it is.
We'll have even more kids jumping the barriers while people with
valid
tickets who just want to get to work on time the following morning,
will
be penalised.
Even now, Sunday mornings, with our first westbound Central Line
train
not arriving until 07.15 when the station opens just after 06.25
isn't
much fun either.
