10 Things Not To Do On The Underground

3. Don€™t Say Anything That Could Be Slightly Racist

There is a song in the stage show Avenue Q called €œEveryone€™s a Little Bit Racist€, but if you have frequented the London Underground then it€™s safe to say that it is not the place to find out if that is true or not. Climb on board any tube train and you will be greeted by more nationalities than at a UN Conference. Along with a high portion of Asian tourists, there are the French, German and Americans, also members of the many different religious groups that live in the UK from Muslim to Jew with a bit of Rastafarian thrown in for some good dreadlocked measure. All in all, every underground station should have a sign above the entrance that simply reads this: Frankie Boyle €“ Keep Out.
