Well l don't know all the circumstances but yesterday someone got chucked off a train for being unmasked. It doesn't seem he should have to prove he doesn't have to wear one and in any case it's easy to fraudulently say (or wear a card) to say you don't.
Maybe he was a bolshie git who wanted an argument; though from what l saw of him he was over 60, well dressed with good quality luggage (though I guess many bolshie gits on here could match that description!). On the other hand it could have been a guard who thrives on petty officialdom - and that does exist.
