London transport is terrible. It's overcrowded and expensive. They ANNUALLY raise the price by about 10% (with little or no justification). It closes early on weekends. They routinely decide to suspend lines (usually the Victoria) or close stations. They have all these unnecessary people telling you what to do all the time (I have NEVER been told on Tube equivalents in other countries to move down inside the carriage, please use all available space etc. etc.) and it is just generally rubbish. I am particularly narked, having seen in other cities that public transport is possible without all the expense and drama (Moscow: twice the number of commuters, faster travel, much cheaper. Paris: more lines, hardly ever down, generally much better. Same story for Barcelona, Athens, Kiev ... I could go on).
So, who's with me?
