Robert Jenrick becomes ‘bobby on the beat’ as he confronts fare-dodgers on the Tube to highlight lawlessness in London
TOP Tory Robert Jenrick is a “bobby on the beat” as he confronts fare-dodgers on the Tube.
The Shadow Justice Secretary filmed himself collaring yobs who jumped barriers to highlight brazen lawlessness in London.
Marching up to freeloaders, he demands: “Do you want to go back and pay like everybody else?”
During the confrontations he is threatened and told to “f*** off”.
Mr Jenrick said: “Sadiq Khan is driving a proud city into the ground.
“He’s not acting. So, I did.”

His video, viewed nearly five million times, sparked Transport for London to say “fare evasion is unacceptable”.
Last month, The Sun revealed that Jenrick had been caught plotting to unite the Tories and Reform UK in a leaked tape.
The Tory MP warned that a divided Right would gift Labour a second term, vowing he’s “not prepared” to let Keir Starmer “sail in through the middle.”
The comments have fuelled fresh speculation that Mr Jenrick – who narrowly lost the leadership contest to Kemi Badenoch – could be positioning himself for another tilt at the top job.
It came despite public denials from both Ms Badenoch and Reform boss Nigel Farage that any deal is on the table before the election.
