If the tube staff really didn't want to strike, then they'd open the tube to

There are reasonably large chunks of LuL who can't open the tube
to the public for free, because they don't control the gates. An
example would be the drivers.

Now, one could argue that the Station Assistants should show
solidarity with their commrades on the train (or in the signal
cabin). Remind me - who made such seconday actions illegal?
