£200 FINE WARNING FOR MASK DODGERS ON TUBE

TUBE and other public transport users were today warned to wear a face mask or risk a £200 fine as the battle against the Omicron Covid variant was ramped up.

Mayor Sadiq Khan said enforcement of face covering rules on the Underground, buses and other services run by Transport for London would be increased after they were made compulsory again by the Government from 4am today. Mr Khan said: “Provided with proper enforcement powers, TfL will now be able to work with policing partners and really boost compliance on the network, with the selfish few who refuse to wear a face covering facing a penalty fine.”

Face masks will also be mandatory in shops, banks, post offices and hairdressers as ministers seek to slow the spread of the Omicron mutation. Health Secretary Sajid Javid said: “I know that Londoners will play their part and look out for each other by wearing a face covering when in a shop or on transport.”
