'Tube chat' campaign provokes horror among London commuters
Badges from mystery source encouraging passengers to talk elicit calls for ‘do not disturb’ signs – but not everyone is against
The perception of the London commuter as an unfriendly curmudgeon has been bolstered by the mixed reaction to a mystery campaign to encourage tube passengers to chat.
Badges emblazoned with the question “Tube chat?” have been distributed on the London Underground network, to the horror of some regular users.
What is this monstrosity?! This is too much. Make it stop. Say no to #tube_chat https://t.co/AWKmhWQ8MJ
