Has anybody in the transport industry not threatened or gone on strike
this year.


Bus drivers in London?

Dont speak so soon!

Indeed.

If they do strike actually strike on carnival weekend then they'll lose
many people's sympathies. I guess that's all part of the game - they
won't actually go ahead with it, but they just threaten to strike on a
critical day (or days).

I thought the TSSA - the union threatening the First London bus strike
- were one of the more reasonable unions. That said, I don't know the
specific grievances that First London employees have.
