News, reports and information for RMT members who work for London Underground Ltd
An agreement from SFC dated 2005
Whilst LUL managers may deny these agreements there’s no doubt they exist.
They just don’t like sharing.
The SFC 2019 have, at the request of our reps, re-issued the following advice.
It’s important we make them stick to agreements made with the RMT
The RMT's Regional Organiser John Leach has written to London Underground to highlight our ongoing concerns about red tabards following an article in LU's propoganda magazine 'On The Move.'
John Leach wrote to remind tube bosses that we remain in dispute and to request a meeting about claims made in the article.

Dear Jean
RMT revenue reps are to discuss all options including possible industrial action over LULs appalling decision to close all Line Revenue Offices.
The proposal is that all RCIs will be based at Baker Street in the current revenue control office. This includes all locker, shower and PC access only being available at Baker Street, an office that barely suits 40 odd people there now.
With nearly 140 RCIs being planned to move there , it’s a case of treating RCIs like sardines. It also means journey times of up to an hour to access mess facility’s and lockers.
- The latest pay offer from London Underground is attached to this article.
Dear RMT members,
A new revised pay offer has been sent out London Underground. This offer has not been discussed, but follows on from last week's pay talks.
The RMT executive committee will discuss the offer soon and give the RMT position on it.
There is still nothing from the company for members covered by Tubelines collective bargaining arrangements.
I've told LUL we are available on the 5th of June.
The offer has been put in the public domain by London Underground.

Dear RMT members
Today myself with RMT reps, and the other Trade Unions met LUL face to face for the 6th meeting we’ve had in this years Pay talks.
Despite our strong representation in the meeting the company made no revised/ improved offer. Rather they once again pleaded poverty. We told them in no uncertain terms that our members would not be paying for either the government or the mayor's financial starvation or incompetence.
At the end of the day long meeting LUL said they were preparing a revised offer and that they would send it to us next Thursday 30th.
Subject: BREAKDOWN IN INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS, TRAIN OPERATORS, VICTORIA LINE – LONDON UNDERGROUND
That we note the report from our Lead Officer regarding the unsatisfactory situation for our Victoria Line Train Operators; and we instruct the General Secretary to arrange an urgent meeting of our Victoria Line Representatives, Trains Functional Council with the Lead Officer, Senior Assistant General Secretary and NEC in attendance.
Members to be advised by email & text.
TUBE UNION RMT has announced a stunning victory for militant trade unionism, and has suspended strike action involving over a thousand tube fleet staff due to start on Friday, after London Underground confirmed that it is withdrawing all proposed cuts to train inspection and preparation – the issue at the heart of the dispute.
