Drunk bloke smoking on Westbound Platform. LU guy asks him to put it
out. He gets abusive. LU guy asks him to leave. Drunk guy decides to go
on to other platform. LU guy goes after him and starts trying to stop
him. Drunk bloke fights back and LU guy only escapes having his head
kicked in by two passengers stepping in to pull the drunk guy off him.
Im sure this happens all the time. But coming back from peaceful quiet
break. It was kinda a "Welcome back to London" moment.

Can we presume that you were *not* one of these public spirited individuals.
We can accept a moment's immodesty in this instance I feel, others may
disagree.

Well I was actually pushed out of the way by the both of them as they
come onto the platform. And two people were already holding him down so
what exactly what did you want me to do? Kick him while they held him
down?

I didn't "want" you to do anything, I was posing a question to ascertain
your part in the proceedings, if any, other than as an observer.

As much as I think LU is a **** company. And a majority of LU workers
are lazy and not customer focused. I wouldn't have watched, while LU
worker got his head kicked in by a drunk customer.

No, you would probably have been taking photos. With a flash.

You weren't the person wanting to complain the other day about one of a bank
of ten ticket machines not being open whilst I had far better things to deal
with, such as a total suspension west of Baker Street were you?
