TO ALL RMT MEMBERS AT LONDON UNDERGROUND/TRANSPORT FOR LONDON
Dear Colleagues,
DEFENDING JOBS, PENSIONS & AGREEMENTS - LONDON UNDERGROUND / TRANSPORT FOR LONDON
Further to my previous correspondence, I am writing to you following talks at ACAS attended by your representatives.
14th June 2022
To all RMT London Underground members.
Do not waste your vote - make sure you return your ballot paper - vote 'yes' to both questions.
Dear Colleagues,
DEFEND JOBS, PENSIONS AND AGREEMENTS - LONDON UNDERGROUND
A special bulletin about the London Underground all grades strike on 21st of June is attached. This will be a historic strike which coincides with industrial action taking place across UK railways.
RMT LEADS BIGGEST STRIKE IN MODERN HISTORY
Please download the attachment to read the latest edition of Bakerloo News.
4,000 striking station and revenue control staff have shutdown London Underground in a show of strength to oppose pension attacks and job cuts.
Trains have remained in depots across the network and RMT activists are reporting huge attendances at picket lines despite heavy rain across the capital.
600 station staff jobs will be lost if TfL (Transport for London) plans go through and RMT members face huge detrimental changes to their pensions and working conditions.

Why working overtime works against us…
The sudden sharp increase in station closures demonstrates what we always knew; the job requires more station staff, not fewer.
LU has made clear its intention to get shot of around 600 CSA posts. Talks between RMT and LU have gone nowhere but the strength of the strikes on 1st/3rd March forced a partial (temporary) climbdown on pensions and now LU is looking to take on a grade or a function at a time.
If a Tube strike costs London £50m a day, then it would follow that we generate £18,250,000,000 a year - that's over 18 billion pound!
Watch Jared Wood, our National Executive Committee representative, discuss that and the importance of voting YES YES in our re-ballot.

Further to previous correspondence, you will shortly receive your ballot paper for the above dispute to keep our mandate for action live. I urge you to complete and return your ballot paper as soon as you receive it to demand that LUL agree to our demands and provide the three assurances and guarantees to protect your jobs, pensions and agreements.
