London is days away from a complete booze ban on the entire TFL network as a pledge Boris Johnson made in his mayoral campaign. The booze ban comes into effect on the 1^st of June 2008 where nobody is allowed to carry an open bottle of alcohol on the public transport network.

This is in a bid to tackle the increasing numbers of anti- social behaviour amongst Londoners. Would this be a good move or a bad move for the new mayor of London? In one hand I can see where he is coming from, making the TFL network a safer place for people during all hours of the day. On the other hand I can see a bit of problem enforcing this new ban when it’s 1am in the morning; you have a carriage full of drunken people drinking on their way to the next party. The only man on the platform will not want to stand up to them alone, neither would I.  

What do you think about the booze ban?
