The "ladies and gentleman" greeting on Tube announcements is to be scrapped, Transport for London (TfL) has announced.

London Underground staff have been told to say "hello everyone" in an effort to become more gender-neutral.

Seriously? Can someone also ban the phrase 'raining cats and dogs', for fear that pets may feel the constant threat of being thrown off a building.

There is a strange schizophrenia in capitalist society. As the endless cutbacks go on and extremes of wealth grow there seems to be an ever greater focus on language and other superficial forms of equality.

The interesting thing about Trump is that his brutalised language much more accurately expresses the needs and outlook of the American ruling class as it prepares to attack the working class at home and stir up wars abroad.

As a tube worker I've never known ANYONE to even say 'ladies and gentlemen' over the P.A...... we do have pre-recorded voices that sound like the speaking clock, again, I don't know anyone who uses them as it's quicker to record your own voice. Another waste of money by TFL to make sure they sound 'right on'.

My non-binary side is offended.

Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

@smegma Eh ???

Sorry, maybe I didn't express that very well. I meant that in the absence of any real change for the better that there is a focus on saying the right things (commonly known as political correctness).

How dare you, how absolutely dare you call me that! Mate insinuates I'm exclusively yours for breeding. Shame on you.
