A word of warning. A member of the Railservice who is rather high up in their Union has been at a national meeting today. From mid May  through to when a deal can be made. There is likely to be Industrial action across all railservices, metro/underground services, all Network rail staff and 16 rail operating companies. Just thought I would share this piece of information as I know a large number will already be plotting trains to Kings Lynn and maybe Barnet.

It may not go ahead, but I thought people would rather know then not.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

Barnet is a 3 hour walk for me, bit of springtime sun and some tinnies sounds like a good backup plan to me.

If there is strike action it will target midweek days when commuters travel to work in large numbers. They won’t target Saturdays or Sundays.

The point of a strike is blackmail until the union gets what it wants.

Which is what, to keep their jobs & have decent conditions?

Whereas the train operators only want to make profits for shareholders.

Up the workers

They might on the tube/TFL network. They've been threatening full closure of the Victoria Line at weekends and there are currently overnight weekend strikes going on on the Victoria and Central Line until June. Minimal disruption admittedly, but they are willing to go there.
