Circular No. NP/168/24

Dear Colleague,

RMT 2024 POLITICAL FUND BALLOT 

I am writing to advise you of arrangements and give advanced notice of the RMT Political Fund Ballot that must be concluded by early November 2024.  

The law says all unions must have a separate Political Fund if they want to spend money campaigning on issues that have a political content.

Dear Colleague

Meeting with British Transport Police 

I met with the Chief Constable and other representatives of British Transport Police (BTP) yesterday afternoon.

At this meeting, BTP emphasised their commitment to protect the safety and wellbeing of passengers and railway staff during the current country-wide wave of violence fuelled by the far right.

Dear Colleague,

UPDATE: FAR-RIGHT VIOLENCE

Further to my earlier circular today (NP/196/24) we have become aware that there could be further demonstrations planned by far-right groups aimed at mosques and refugee centres in the coming week.

We are therefore asking members where possible to be in contact with their local mosques, refugee centres and solidarity groups to offer our union's solidarity and support on the ground at a time when they face severe threats and intimidation.
