Tube strike on Boxing Day

thanks to all the London Underground drivers for making my live so much easier on getting to the west ham game NOT!!


London Tube strike on Boxing Day confirmed by Aslef union

London Underground drivers are to strike on Boxing Day, and 18 and 25 January
London Underground drivers are to strike on Boxing Day, and 18 and 25 January in a row over bank holiday pay, the Aslef union has said.

A stoppage is likely to affect Tube services across the capital, causing disruption for shoppers and tourists.

An Aslef spokesman said: "The ballot result shows the strength of feeling that remains on this issue."

London Underground's Howard Collins said: "Further industrial action will not achieve anything."

It will be the third successive Boxing Day walkout by Tube drivers in a dispute over bank holiday pay, in a dispute over Bank Holiday pay which dates back to an agreement in 1992.

The move was announced after Aslef members voted by 9-1 in favour of strikes in a long-running row over extra pay for working on bank holidays.
