TRADE UNIONISTS DAY OF ACTION - LEAVE THE EU
Today, RMT members and other trade unionists from across the UK are protesting around the country leafleting passengers at railways stations to argue for a leave vote in the forthcoming EU referendum.
Transport workers will be joined by a range of trade unionists who will be arguing that it is a myth that the EU protects workers rights and instead that the EU is controlled by a corporate cabal that is pursuing an aggressive austerity and privatisation agenda.

Blacklist Support Group reveals photographic evidence of undercover police spying on RMT union
Photographic evidence shows that in October 2004 the spy cop was present at the industrial dispute following the sacking of the prominent union militant Steve Hedley (now elected as Senior Assistant General Secretary of the RMT union) at the Kings Cross terminal for the Channel Tunnel Rail Link .
The presence of the police spy from the Met's disgraced Special Demonstration Squad was captured on camera by the freelance photographer Andrew Wiard.

Today (Tuesday 24th May) we had the latest in a series of meetings regarding Night Tube (NT) and the proposed trial 4 day, 36 hour week (4DW).
(Background - As part of our dispute resolution LUL agreed to look at trialling a 4DW on the Jubilee line. This was to be negotiated at a Company Council Trains Sub-Group (CCTSG) at the same time as we negotiated the introduction of NT and the long term reduction of weekend working, and the option for current drivers (TO21s) to work reduced hours.)
Night Tube
RMT Jubilee South branch meetings are held on pay day each month, at 1600 in a private room above the Blue Eyed Maid pub in Borough High Street. The closest tube station is London Bridge.
The next meeting will be held on Wednesday, 8th of June.
Functional and Health & Safety Reps will be at our next branch meeting to give important updates and to take questions.
Come along to hear:
TUBE UNION RMT today slammed the “disgusting and obscene spectacle” of nearly 50 senior TFL managers decked out in black-tie regalia at Mayfair’s luxury RAF Club as they celebrated the completion of a massive cuts programme that axes 800 safety-critical station staff and trashes 289 tube ticket offices.
