I liked having a fag in the pub with my beer but the law changed and I dealt with it.
This is no different.

I like how Johnson talked it up yesterday:
"Well, I, er, when people realise, er, that they can't, er, do this, er, drink on public transport, then, er, I rather think they'll stop."
Righto.

So many particulars. So many questions.

An administration based on an unswerving belief in the general public's all-round decency and sense of fair play. Was that in the mainfesto?

Does he mean to ban drink on trains in London? What about the trains that serve drinks? When will it be OK to have a drink, is Croydon far enough? What about planes in London, do I have to wait until I am out of London airspace?
Will I be arrested on the tube? It won't be coppers enforcing anything and I'm not sure the RMT are too keen to enforce the ban either, and what powers would they actually have?

Yes it is. Passive smoking kills. Having a beer on the tube most certainly does not.
First they came for the...
Fair enough, it might not cause harm to others, but it does smell.
I would have thought that most people would like someone sitting next to them who doesn't stink of booze than someone who does.
(Playing devil's advocate by the way, I have enjoyed a can on the tube as much as most people here).

most people would prefer to sit next to someone who doesn't reek of stale sweat. Would it be reasonable to ban smelly people from the tube?
In a word, yes.
Dirty minging bastards, have a bit of self-respect and consideration for others.

but seriously, hot day, you in suit, you happen to sweat a lot. Some people do. Is it then reasonable to insist that they shower before they leave work as well as before they leave in the morning?

But smelling of booze hasn't been banned! ( I know you're only playing devils advocate).

Things you could theoretically ban from the tube include booze, fried food, any food, people who keep backpacks on their backs in the rush hour, kids playing music on phone speakers, smelly people, pissed people, people who have to sit seats away from each other because its busy but still carry on their conversation by shouting, tourists, wasps etc.
Personally, I'd happy to see the back of some of those more than others but I wouldn't like to see a ban implemented against any of them (except the last one maybe!).
I can see other people's point of view though, and I imagine that a substantial number of folks may be intimidated by the sight of others swigging from a can on the tube, or sitting next to them and drinking, others may not like the smell etc etc.
If there are a substantial number then why shouldn't this law be bought in?!?
As I said earlier, I'm not for it in the slightest. I wasn't for the cigarette ban in pubs either but that happened and I had to change the way I behaved slightly. Looks like I'll have to do it again and wait till I get home for a can now (west end to far end of the central line = 45min journey - probably longer than most on the tube system) but its not a biggie in the general scheme of things.
IMHO of course.

Get used to rolling over for every govmnt freedom restricting whim if you like. I shan't be joining you.
Gave up a while ago as this country is heading towards being the sort of place I really don't like. It's a shame because I used to love it, living in London especially. Sometimes I despair about the state we're in at the moment.
Fed up with it all so am a year into my three year plan to emigration (if I pass my courses and nothing happens to change my mind in the meantime!!). Am well aware that the grass might just look greener, but decided if I didn't try I'll never know.
Fucking government, don't plan on being here to see what a change to the tories will be like...
Where are you planning on emigrating to?
art of fact

Free drink?
Moscow hopefully... frying pan and fire come to mind!!
Anyway, sorry for the thread derail, on with the tube party planning.

They haven't. It's not a bad idea. Did the spacehijackers organise a circle line party once?
Space Hijackers have organised 3 so far to my knowledge.
SH Circle Line Party 1
SH Circle Line Party 2
SH Circle Line Party 3
Last one got a bit too big, attracted too much attention and got stoppped before it really started.

I'm not aware that one can charter an underground train.
In what way is it 'illegal'?
