Victimised driver Jayesh Patel agrees settlement at ACAS

Young members activist and victimised driver Jayesh Patel reached a settlement with London Underground yesterday at ACAS.

A settlement was reached yesterday. The full terms of the agreement are confidential, but the RMT are pleased to report that Jayesh will be back driving trains in February next year.

Another victory for the RMT!
