A message from Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn to RMT members

Dear RMT member,

I am really grateful for the support of the RMT in my campaign to be re-elected as Leader of the Labour Party.

Let's unite and make sure we keep building a Labour Party that fights for the interests of the working class.

The rules set by the Labour Party state that if you were a member of the Labour Party before 12 January 2016 you get a vote in the leadership election.

RMT Tube reps sign letter backing Jeremy Corbyn

We, the undersigned RMT union reps on London Underground are appalled at the disgraceful campaign waged by members of the Parliamentary Labour Party to unseat Jeremy Corbyn as leader.

Jeremy Corbyn has long been a friend to the RMT, supporting our campaigns for social justice and for peace.

Jeremy was only recently elected with a massive majority, and his election has inspired a massive increase in party membership.

Jubilee South branch concerned about recent train tests on the line

Jubilee South branch have passed a motion highlighting our concerns following reports of testing on the Jubilee Line, whereby a train was alledgedly moved in engineering hours without the operator being required to 'activate' the cab with their key or to operate the manual control switch.

Branch officials and representatives are investigating the reports and preparing an action plan to respond to the issue.

The motion

Driverless testing on Jubilee Line.
