I am very proud of the hundreds of people who have volunteered to help stranded commuters, as they face the chaos brought on by Bob Crow and this band of followers.

The people who are standing at Tube station gates throughout London, both this morning and yesterday are a true testament to our Big Society.

Perhaps Mr Crow could learn something from the community spirit of these people?

To be honest I am surprised that so many have walked out over ticket office, closures, given that no-one was likely to be forced out of their rail job anyway and staffing reduced by natural wastage.

What a fuss.
