An app encourages commuters to offer up their seats. But demanding special treatment for one group feels silly when rush hour is hideous for everyone
As someone who likes badges (especially if they’re free) as well as the chirpy aesthetic of London Underground design and being pregnant after a fairly long haul, I was initially pleased with my baby-on-board badge. It’s an easy way to convey news, and wins you smiles from strangers on the street – and sometimes even a seat.
The logic was that people were too engrossed in their phones to notice bumps waggling unhappily in front of their handbag
