Default London bus strikes

First Bus and Metrobus are being called out on strike for 24 hours on
10th and 22nd October. They are also being joined by Metroline drivers
on these dates.

Ballots also underway at Arriva London North, Arriva London South, East
London Buses [1] and East Thames Buses with a view to them being called
out on the 22nd Oct. London Sovereign are also to be formally balloted
following a 98% vote in favour in a consultative ballot.

Looks like 22/10/08 will be the biggest day in terms of impact so far
with a lot of North London affected and a slice of South London also
affected.

[1] not sure if this is just East London Buses and not Selkent or
whether it is at "group" level and covers East London, Selkent and the
new East London Bus unit at Rainham.
