Lois McLatchie, 26, a communications officer for a legal advocacy organisation, criticised the poster, saying it leaves police officers with “an impossible mind-reading task”.

“I commend the TfL campaign for tackling serious violations against women on public transport, including upskirting and exposing, but when it comes to criminalising staring, we must have some pause for thought,” she said.

“As a young female who frequents public transport, I certainly know that unwelcome stares can cause feelings of unease. However, practically, police officers have been given an impossible mind-reading task in being asked to determine whether somebody on the tube is staring innocently or ‘intrusively’.

“Unfortunately, this is part of a growing trend where police officers are being asked to monitor internal thoughts.

“While the policy of banning staring on the train is well-intentioned, criminalising thought is neither practical nor effective in tackling sexual harassment. Such overreach is detrimental to the fundamental freedoms at the core of a democratic society.”
