They have already had one crack at him - and now they are back for another.

Glen Hart was following RMT instructions not to work over time during the FFFS dispute.

They tried to sack him for closing his station because there was no relief.

With no evidence they could not find against him.

They are now perusing more trumped up charges against Glen 

This time they centre on being rude to a manager - no witnesses and no evidence.

Please publicise Glens case around your workplace.

The RMT have vowed to defend Glen with everything we have

Dear Colleagues,

KILL THE BILL: PROTECT THE RIGHT TO STRIKE - TUC MASS RALLY and LOBBY OF PARLIAMENT – 2nd NOVEMBER 2015

BRING FLAGS, BANNERS AND PEOPLE FOR A HUGE RMT TURN OUT.

All south of England Branches are urged to do everything within their capability to ensure a maximum turn out for the mass rally and lobby of Parliament that will take place on MONDAY 2nd November 2015 from 11.30

Branches can legitimately use their Branch Political funds to ensure this so please start acting now.

Following Karen Guyotts' dismissal because she had a disability -  questions were asked in Parliament - MPs from all sides of the house were appalled that in 2015 London's biggest employer could sack one of its employees solely because she had a disability.

LUL cited that the reasonable adjustments in place for Karen were "unsustainable" and sacked her.

Karen was unable to "sustain" an industrial response due to her condition.

Night tube deferred - doesn't mean our pay rise should be!

LU have suggested that they will not impose NT,but seek to come to an agreement with the RMT and other TUs.
This is obviously more preferable than having NT imposed and It comes with some obvious questions - not least being where's our pay increase?

We are patiently waiting for LUL to make us a decent offer.
But our patience is limited.

All LTRC Branches,
Please be advised that nominations for all positions and local reps will take place at our branch meeting 7th October in The Torch, Wembley Pk 16:00hrs prompt.
If you have an address or intend to come, please contact Chair Adam Evans or Nigel Eivers asap, as I will be on A/L

Yours in solidarity
Les Bruty
Neasden Branch Secretary
