It does seem to be confirming that the late Bob Crow was indeed a
moderating influence on a very militant union. He probably wouldn't have
called these strikes while the ACAS talks were still continuing.

Sadly, just like their equally bolshi and half witted brethren in British
Leyland in the 1970s, they're too stupid to realise that their constant
strikes are going to result in their jobs ceasing to exist. TfL are
ditching ticket offices - in reality the people in them - and want to bring
in driverless trains. I wonder if the idiots waving their placards in a
couple of weeks will be able to spot the connection.

Sadly, it's not so easy to replace train operators, so even if future
Tube trains are fully automatic, they'll still have an operator on
board, who'll probably be an RMT member.
