| So what do you know about the cameras? Are they all working? What is the quality of the images they record? How often do they not record? Do they have eyes to see everywhere? Do they phone up the police during an incident? Do they let elders or the vulnerable through the gates at all hours when the traveller gets into a fuddle with or loses their ticket, or the ticket stiops working? Do they phone the ambulance when someone has a heart attack? How many people sitting in front of cameras nod off to sleep? What happens when someone wants to have a pee? what happens when there is a flu bug in the monitoring office and half the camera watchers are in bed sick? How high is the sick leave rate? How motivated are the staff? Years ago LUL staff were known to have very low motivation levels. Cameras do some of the job and assist the site staff. Since cameras were introdced some long time ago, how many staff were accordingly made redundant? Just what is the minimum which is acceptable. Not only are the staff needed to take action, but also they are, as is the case with the police, needed to maintain the perception that the public is being looked after. Especially when you consider that we are pretty high risk as regards terrorism. What did fascinate me though was when Bob Crow recently said on TV that he did not recognise the middle classes. Word for word - poor sad soul. |
