Default Boxing Day (Sunday 26th) ASLEF tube strike still on
As per this release date 22 December (yesterday) on the ASLEF website:
http://www.aslef.org.uk/information/...as_talks_fail/

I note it says "[...] as the union represents most drivers on London's tube
system, disruption will be extensive and significant."

The TfL response:
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/medi...tre/17856.aspx

Which starts like this: "London Underground (LU) today slammed the
leadership of ASLEF after they walked out of peace talks at conciliation
service ACAS [...]"

Who's writing this stuff these days?! "LU slammed the leadership", "peace
talks" etc!
