Train Strike

[ukwill]

Has been called off. For now...

[road_rager]

thank fk!

[Tony*T3]

You got to feel sorry for all hose that wanted to strike next week, and their families.....

must be gutted its off.

Bet they all had great Easter plans with their families....

fk the Signalmen, I have no sympathy for them.

50 grand a year for a 36 hour week and a job for life.

For a blue collar job they have a good little number.

I'm gutted, would have been a further 4 days not in the office for me plus about £80 back for the priviledge!

But guys lets remember they are only going on strike to safeguard OUR safety. How considerate of them eh.

Just so I'm clear on this, the claim is things like members being balloted at signal boxes that have been closed for 25 years and so on.

Is the claim simply that they were sent papers there, because as the RMT chap just said on C4 news, if they're not told someone's changed location what can they do? Or is the claim that some of those ballots to non-existent places came back voting for strike action?
