RMT says new Transport for London Commissioner must give Underground cleaners the same free travel pass he is entitled to
On the day that new Transport for London Commissioner Andy Byford starts work [Monday 29 June], RMT called on him to put a stop to a shameful injustice by giving London’s heroic Underground cleaners the same TfL travel pass that he and the Mayor are entitled to.
We held a minute’s silence for people affected by Covid-19.

RMT members have demonstrated our commitment to keeping the tube and other TfL services running throughout the Covid 19 crisis. We want to provide the best possible service to workers in London but we reject workers being forced on to the tube without the necessary safety planning and before conditions are right.
The government is putting pressure of TfL and LUL to run a near 100% service to help carry more passengers as people are told to go back to work whether they can socially distance or not.
