London tube staff use cheeky messages to encourage commuters to vote
Underground staff write election ‘thought of the day’ missives on station information boards, but stop short of any party endorsements
Underground staff may be reminded of rules about political neutrality after a series of cheeky election messages appeared on station information boards, some of which appear to back the Labour party.
The boards, which are supposed to be reserved for service updates, have been used by staff to give their thoughts on the election.
