On this Day 1972: Ban food and drink on Buses
OTD, November 7th 1972…
John Swallow spoke to Birmingham Councillor Gladys Andrews on a double decker bus, about her objections to people eating on buses.
John talks to Gladys about her bid to ban people eating on buses while sitting on a bus. In the midst of the interview, the bus conductor presents John with a tray holding a plate of fish and chips along with two glasses of wine. Mrs. Andrews appears visibly taken aback as John extends an offer of wine and food to her.
