"Aslef, which represents around 70% of drivers, said LU was trying to force
through new rosters which would mean drivers worked unlimited hours "
Really? Thats unlikely because it would be illegal. FUD from a union, who'd
have thought it.
The ASLEF press release at
http://www.aslef.org.uk/information/...ction_on_tube/
reads slightly differently:
"ASLEF members on London Underground have voted overwhelmingly for strike
action in a dispute over the company’s decision to try to force through,
without negotiation, new rosters which would mean Tube drivers will have
to work an unlimited number of weekend and night shifts for no extra
pay."
