Together for London

TfL(Transport for London) have launched a new campaign to get users of buses, Tubes and trains in the capital to be a bit more respectful of other passengers. Together for London aims to get people to cut down listening to music on public transport or at least tone down the volume, stop yakking loudly on mobile phones, not bring smelly takeaway food on to buses and Tubes and to offer their seat if someone in needs requires it.

There’s going to be a poster campaign featuring different scenarios and the director Mike Figgis who made Leaving Las Vegas and Internal Affairs with Richard Gere has directed a short film clip to be shown in almost 800 cinemas across London from 1 February highlighting anti-social behaviour on public transport. Good luck I say, but I doubt it will change the habits of some peoples lifetimes.
