Next Week's Strike
All media referance to the strike was "pulled" on Friday on the
Mayor's order. Apparantly TSSA and UNITE (ex-TGWU) have reached an
agreement, no prizes for guessing that the RMT are those holding out
(though maybe isn't this always going to be the case as they tend to
represent the "poor bloody infantry"" which tend to come out worse
from any dispute?).
LU are expecting to wind down services from 1500-1700 Monday on the
BCV and SLL lines and not restore until Friday AM. If this *really*
occurs, it will be the most serious disruption since 1982 by my
reckoning, as though there have been strikes affecting more lines
since, these have been single days.
