英国首相Andy Burnham宣布推出全国性运动，针对在公共交通工具上大声播放音乐和视频的行为。1政府将向地方交通部门发布指导意见，授权他们对违规乘客处以罚款，其中公交车上最高罚款100英镑，火车上最高罚款1000英镑。1Burnham表示，"我们都在火车上经历过有人大声播放音乐或视频的情况。这让人烦恼，很快就会毁掉你的旅程。"1同时，政府将启动以"分享车厢，不分享噪音"为口号的宣传活动，鼓励乘客使用耳机。1
此举回应了民调显示的公众意愿。1约60%的选民支持对此类行为采取行动。1伦敦市长Sadiq Khan在夏季推出了类似的"travel kind"运动。1然而，Unite工会总干事Sharon Graham对此举提出批评，表示新措施对保护交通工作者而言"完全不足"。1
Andy Burnham has announced a nationwide campaign to combat loud music and video playback on public transportation across the UK. 1 The government will issue guidance to local transport authorities, empowering them to fine passengers up to £100 on buses and up to £1,000 on trains for the offense. 1 A complementary public awareness campaign will encourage commuters to use headphones. 1
Burnham characterized the problem as a widespread frustration, stating: "We've all experienced someone playing music or videos loudly on a train. It's annoying and can quickly ruin your journey." 1 The initiative responds to public sentiment, with approximately 60% of voters supporting action against such behavior. 1 A YouGov poll indicated backing for penalties, with voters endorsing £1,000 fines for those who play loud music on buses and trains. 1 The campaign slogan—"share the carriage, not the noise"—aligns with similar efforts, including London Mayor Sadiq Khan's "travel kind" campaign launched earlier in the summer. 1
However, the measures have drawn criticism. Sharon Graham, general secretary of Unite union, contended that the new initiative falls "completely short" of what is needed to protect transport workers. 1
