RMT Regional Organiser Jared Wood has appeared on BbC London News to discuss our dispute.
Dear RMT Member
RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 – LONDON UNDERGROUND
I wrote to you yesterday (3rd September) following the talks with London Underground, stating that no new offer has been made and therefore the strike action would remain on.
I received correspondence from London Underground this morning, claiming to be a new offer – and this is a claim that they have gone on to make in the media today.

Tube union RMT, today announced rolling strike action across the network beginning on Friday 5th September for seven days, with different grades taking industrial action at differing times.
The strikes come after management refused to engage seriously with union demands on pay, fatigue management, extreme shift patterns and a reduction in the working week, as well as failing to honour previous agreements made with staff.

Dear RMT Member
RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 – LONDON UNDERGROUND
I am writing to advise you that, following the magnificent mandate for industrial action you delivered in the ballot, a meeting was held earlier this week between your negotiating team and national officers.
The unanimous view expressed at the meeting was that, unless London Underground makes a suitable offer to resolve the ongoing pay dispute, then your union should declare its intention to take strike action.
