That we note that the talks at ACAS have been fraught and the contempt for our members shown by the company and their internal imbalance and inability to address
the issues of this dispute.

We also note the view of members expressed at the joint branch meeting last week;where they voted to put down more strike action.

That we note the request from the company to attend ACAS; but that they have put nothing forward to resolve this dispute.

The strike remains on; and we look forward to receiving a meaningful resolution from the company to be discussed at ACAS at the earliest opportunity from Monday.

That we note the report from our Lead Officer that the company’s secret planned backlash against our members has been exposed.

Upon booking on, the company are planning to doorstep our driver members taking industrial action short of a strike, instructing them to confirm they will carry out the new imposed unsafe detraining process; sending them home without pay if they say they are abiding by their unions instruction to work safely.

This union will NOT tolerate our driver members being intimidated or victimised for taking lawful industrial action.

The attached leaflet explains to passengers why the Piccadilly Line strike action is taking place.
