You've got to admire the Scots!

Basically a fare dodger was holding up proceedings and being generally disrespectful and obnoxious so the 'big man' decided to help the conductor by removing the idiot from the train! I thought he did it in a very controlled manner however sadly I dare say that he'll end up being done for assault but it was nice to see at the end of the video the other passengers clapping him.

Good on that man, he probably saved the passengers about 2 hours!

Small victory,s like that gladden the heart but sadly the cops now want to get a hold of him for an assault charge , that being the case the dodger should be charged with a breach of the peace for his abuse of the collector.

I saw this on the MG ZT face book site this morning (compliments of Rabett) :elvis: My first thought is that had the collector called the old bill, the outcome would have been the same with this upstart having to be removed.

Yes, saw this yesterday, seriously thought about posting on here but decided against it, it might be considered by some too controversial. But pleased that you did, OP and so far its full support for the big Scotsman. Reminds me of another famous Scot, John Smeaton of Glasgow Airport fame.
I just love the way at the start where he points his finger at the 'whelk' - you can imagine him saying something like "So you want him off the train? Right..."

It's just not fare :shrug:
