It's not just the Regions who are paying for London. Southeastern suburban passengers (of which I'm one sadly) are still packed like sardines, but are stumping up an 11% increase for the benefit of those lucky few who will ride the luxury Javelin service.
And let's not forget that this is direct Labour Government policy, handed down through the Office of Rail Regulation. The same Labour Government that spouted the c*** about how it was committed to getting people out of their cars and onto Public Transport.
