I would like to congratulate members on the magnificent support they have shown in today’s strike.

Despite all the propaganda put out by management hardly any trains are running and most of these are ‘ghost’ trains that cannot stop anywhere as the stations are closed.

The mayor and LUL have to understand that these cuts are dangerous and will affect the safety of staff and the travelling public. Whilst there is the usual moaning from some people the general feeling from the public is support for the action as they do not want to see stations unstaffed and trains less frequently maintained.

Your union is continuing to press for a settlement and further talks are to take place at the arbitration service ACAS later this week.

Once again congratulations on the magnificent support for the strike.

UNITY IS STRENGTH TOGETHER WE CAN WIN

Best wishes

Bob Crow General Secretary
