Default Tube Strike?

In message , d
writes

We are awaiting our pay rise from April 2006, there have been no strike
ballots yet so nothing is imminent, the sticking points are the extra 30
mins friday and saturday night.


Pay rise? Safety I can understand, but pay rise? How much pay and time do
you think it's going to cost the general public? Was that factored in to
the strike discussion?


Maybe you should direct those comments at the Management who are dealing
with this too?

Staff have patiently waited for 9 months now for their 2006 pay deal
with no
mention of a strike. How long do you consider they should continue to
wait?

If you bothered to actually *read* the OP, you would note that it was
just a discussion between drivers - nothing official has been indicated
and they are still talking.
