This time last year - the cost of the tube from Tooting Broadway to Elephant & Castle using Oyster PASYG was ?1, in Jan 2010 - it will be ?1.30 which is a staggering 30% increase - quite absurd as with gas/electric/water bills also all going up by 40% approx, then you are told no pay rises as there is a recession, well not it appears for TFL/Ultility companys as the share holders will all be getting their nice little bonus at the end of the year, just like the ?18k that the people who are running 2012 are getiing, VIVA LA REVOLUTION

No doubt the train fares from FH/HOP to London are just as expensive yet all the sloane square brigade are still riding around in their Chelsea Tractors and dont give a hoot about the rises on tubes/trains/buses as Boris looks after them, so beware anyone who thinks a Tory government will be good for normal working class people
