THE THANET Council leader who had to resign after persuading a friend to pose as an Arab sheikh to induce Sally Viking to restore its RamsgateDunkirk ferry service had an idea worth propagating. If Ken Livingstone, leader of the Greater London Council, disguised Dave Wetzel, transport committee chairman, as !di Amin to terrorise passengers into cheating London Transport, London might get rid of both of them.
The police, fighting a losing battle against lawlessness, particularly by young people, would undoubtedly applaud their departure. Wetzel's invitation to students at the North East Polytechnic to refuse to pay the new fares introduced on March 21 was wanton irresponsibility and an incitement to a breach of the peace. His subsequent conduct was equally stupid.
