The campaign matters because it turns a common public-transport annoyance into a question of enforcement, with guidance setting out penalties of up to £100 for nuisance behaviour. It also shows how Andy Burnham is linking day-to-day travel conditions to his wider promise to give voters “breathing space” in confined public spaces. Have you experienced loud music or other nuisance behaviour on public transport, and would penalties improve the situation?
