Default The tube strike is right!

The RMT voted on it, accepted it, and their staff are now suffering from
their headlong dash towards accepting it, they didn't explain how the 35
hour week would be implemented and are now reaping the results.

Sorry to anyone who is affected.

Loads of lies have been told about the New Years Eve tube strike.
Here's the truth!

Bloody troublemakers should be kicked out.

Ten who would run the tube the bosses couldn't run a **** up in a
brewery.

Did I specify who the troublemakers are?

(BTW - the convention is this NG is for bottom posting. Ta.)


OK Cheers - so who do you think the trouble makers are?


Let's bring this issue back on track. OK so there is misinformation out
there
that needs to be knocked on the head and a solution found.

Can't find the solution straight away so a strike is called; fine but why
on
31st December? Could you not wait until 1st January or a few days later?

Now, who is being bloodly minded?

1. The Mayor wants the tube to run all night on NYE
2. Part of the 35 hour week deal was that staff would work NYE for NO
EXTRA pay.
3. Last NYE as part the deal they did work for no extra
4. Staff also agreed to 200 ticket office jobs going (natural wastage)
5. Now the Mayor, LU bosses and the Government want to axe 500 jobs
6. Would you still work NYE for NO EXtra if your boss reneged on a deal?


What "www.waspies.net" has said is partly true but this highlights what a
load of ****E the LU management are. They promised no staff reductions, 200
ticket jobs lossed and full consultation on rosters.

Now they want 500 job losses and imposed rosters. The management have
reneged on the original deal. They are trying to shaft the best union on the
railways.
