This really shouldnāt need saying but @RMTunion members on both the Tube and the railway are fighting to maintain staffing levels from government cuts that can only worsen the service.
That doesnāt make them fair game for physical assaults from passengers.
21 May 2023
@RMTunion and @ASLEFunion must take a share of the blame. Passengers are beyond frustrated with the continued lack of service due to strikes and overtime bans. Unions must stop with their political games and put the needs of passengers and safety of their members first.

Major Tory donor investigated over fraud and money laundering allegations - gave Ā£220,000 to Tories.
Rich don't donate money, they invest. What return was he promised?
Political funding by the rich is the gateway to corruption. It must be banned.
