Time London joined the 21st century and automated its metro.

How hard would it be to let all current employees know that there will be no change to their hours? Perhaps even give them the choice to change their hours if the new night service sounds more appealing to them...

should just ditch the night Tube. its not worth the inconvenience of strikes, and not worth the cost for a couple thousand Londoners to get a tube rather than a night bus home.

Only another four and a half years of repeating that to yourself Ernest, then JC can lose the next one too!

Off the top of my head many (most?) of the Singapore MRT lines are driverless as well as a lot of other newer lines around Asia.

OK, maybe London should take the lead in the West by automating their metro.
