The tribunal results have proved that what the rmt was talking about his
sacking over his union activities was a load of rubbish. That was the only
real way that they could try and persuade their members to vote for strike
action (those that did bother to vote at all). They know they wouldn't
have got the support otherwise. After repeated mentioning of being sacked
because of his union activities on virtually every communication the rmt
have made, they have now conveniently omitted this from their latest
communication
http://www.rmtlondoncalling.org.uk/node/2256
and now just insist that he was unfairly sacked.

It's all politics, and the passengers and union members are the pawns

The tribunal basically said that LU were right to find him guilty of
abusive behaviour and that the sacking was nothing to do with his union
activities.

I don't see that the tribunal has the evidence to assess that.

If TfL sacked the guy wrongly on the basis of a trivial offence it is quite
likely that they had an ulterior reason for doing so. There isn't likely to
be any obvious evidence what that reason was, is there?
