If a supermarket put the price of bread up by 50% there would be uproar. A
zone one single ticket has gone from £2 to £3. This is will rip off tourists
and occasional tube users. Surely you can see this is extortionate.

If you think a 50% rise is big, consider the price of a 1 or 2 zone
single outside zone 1 - they've gone up from £1.30 to £3.00. I make
that a 130% increase.
