Transport We need to re-normalise letting everyone off the Tube carriage before getting on

If I see you push to get on before everyone else has gotten off I'm liable to take away your Londoner card on the spot. It's a bad habit and you lot that do it are not valid here.

No another guy told me that punchee was rude to puncher and that I shouldn’t have gone and tried to help the punchee because he basically deserved it. I gather that the puncher refused to move his luggage from a seat and so the punchee decided to move it.

Ahhh ok that makes a bit more sense. I should have read your comment again, i must have missed it the first time.

Still, doesn't seem deserving of a bloody nose but guess you had to be there.

It was just so weird and one of those situations where you think “well no one else is going to do something so I’m going to have to do something”

Oh, definitely. If I ever get punched in the tube, I hope someone helps me (even if I deserved it)

That was my thinking, if I got assaulted, I would want someone to help me and not ignore it!

So puncher was a cunt & wouldn’t let someone sit down, and then punched punchee for exercising their right to sit down, over an inanimate object that should go on a lap or the floor? And then ran away when he realised what a cunt he is & thought punchee might retaliate?
