I am disgusted with the London Underground as they have no assistance help and it is upto each station or staff if they help had to have help on the tube from public at Hillingdon . Has some help at Wembly Park as i took my wife to repite.
How is it that the Buses and Trains have got it and the Underground have not. It is Crimanal under the 2006 disabilty discrimination act i think. how many of you have had the same problem in London. If you have please please write to Boris Johnston and complain . they better get it right for 2012 or they will be in the chit.Jason

Tue 26 Aug 2008 12:19I must say Jason I don't think it is as bad as you make it out. By definition the London Underground will always be difficult to make entirely ' disability friendly'. However many people that live in London think that some real strides have been made in recent years to make it more so. I have put some useful links for you below.........
