London Tube union threatens walkout on 6 February

 

The RMT union has set the date for its next bout of industrial action on the Tube.

 

Describing this week’s walkout as “rock-solid strike action,” the union today announced members will carry out further industrial action on 6 February. Further, escalated strike action will be called unless London Underground management meets RMT’s demands on station staffing and safety.

 

An ongoing overtime ban also remains in place.

 

Transport for London (TfL) and London Underground are yet to comment on the announcement.
