Update from today's talks.

Night tube

The offer put before the trade unions today was divisive, cynical and an insult to every one of us.

It was designed to buy off the minority to the detriment of the majority.
The offer was made by the CEO with the proviso that the trade unions accept it by 1830 today.

This was a cynical attempt by LUL to try and attempt to panic the unions to accept a divisive offer that benefits few but affects everyone.
We cannot accept the offer on this basis.

Fixed term contract? Why you shoud strike

LU has been looking for a formula to weaken the trades unions for years. They hoped the development of the SRT would have a negative effect on stations , but the buggers kept joining the RMT.
When the unions rightly forced management to address the gender imbalance among drivers, LU thought that by advertising in Cosmopolitan, etc, they'd get a nice passive workforce in heels & Laura Ashley skirts.
Nope - the buggers joined trade unions.

RMT members from LUL &FGW to demo at start of strike action. July 8 1830 Paddington Stn

RMT members from both LUL and FGW will be holding a rally at Paddington Station at the start of their respective strikes.
LUL have set out their stall to impose change on the workers and have been given the clearest response from the RMT.
92% of members voted for taking industrial action.

Equally impressive has been the response from our comrades on FGW who in a dispute over similar issues have voted overwhelmingly in favour of strikes.
