Dear RMT Member

RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 – LONDON UNDERGROUND

I am writing to advise you that, following the magnificent mandate for industrial action you delivered in the ballot, a meeting was held earlier this week between your negotiating team and national officers.

The unanimous view expressed at the meeting was that, unless London Underground makes a suitable offer to resolve the ongoing pay dispute, then your union should declare its intention to take strike action.

RMT Backs Call For Restoration Of Blue Light Status For Emergency Response Unit

Submitted by Admin on 25 July, 2025 - 22:50

RMT has today backed the call from the London Assembly Transport Committee for Transport for London (TfL) to publish the review which led to the removal of blue light status from Emergency Response Unit (ERU) vehicles, and is calling for the reinstatement of this vital emergency capability.

Blue light status was granted to ERU vehicles in 2012 following a recommendation from the London Assembly’s 7 July Review Committee in response to the 7/7 bombings.
