"London Underground staff are to stage three 24-hour strikes and other
industrial action over pay and night Tubes.

The strikes by RMT, Aslef and Unite union members will start on the
evenings of 26 January, 15 February and 17 February."

Lets hope Comrade Corbyn turns up to add support and so further alienates
normal voters. What a gift to the right than man is

I see that they don't want the tube to run for 24 hours a day, but they
are going on strike for 24 hours a day. Isn't there something of a
contradiction there? I wonder if they have negotiated properly with
their unions for 24 hours of strike pay each time :-)

Although we know that the strike actually has an effect for much more
than 24hrs - more like 36hrs.
