Re: Mind The Pay Gap? Tube Drivers 'To Get £55k'
Tube drivers to strike on Boxing Day...

Quote:
Tube drivers will hold strikes on four days, including Boxing Day, in a row over pay, a drivers' union has said.
Aslef balloted its 2,200 members over demands for triple pay and a day off lieu for working on the bank holiday.
Staff will walk out for 24 hours on Boxing Day, 16 January, 3 and 13 February. Aslef said 92% voted to take industrial action.
London Underground (LU) said it had asked the union to abandon its strike threat over "an outrageous pay claim".
Services were severely disrupted last year when drivers walked out on Boxing Day after talks collapsed.
