When it comes to rank unreasonableness, he's not alone. In recent years, we've had a model refused entry for being too tall, pensioners wrongly ordered off and a nine-year-old and a 14-year-old
ejected for being a few pence short. In separate incidents, two mums
were kicked off: one, who was heavily pregnant, for being accompanied by
a noisy child, the other for breastfeeding. Most awfully, a 22-year-old law student was beaten and raped in Nottingham after finding herself 20p short
of the full fare and attempting to walk home at night. Is this some
sort of epidemic? And how come so many of these cases feature some of
society's most vulnerable?
