What isn't clear (as when this was first mentioned a few months ago) is
if the £500 'bonus' applies to every member of LU staff, or just those
that will need to be rostered for this. Anyone know more?


According to the statement from TfL its train drivers only, but all of
them.

According to the Standard today, Bob Crow is now saying that his other
members like signallers, station staff etc. should also be compensated
for being busy, or whatever. It's not over yet!



Why not? Good luck to him.

While we're at it, I think all taxpayers should be compensated in full
for the ridiculous expense of the Olympics - a net £23 billion so far
and still rising. I demand my share back.
