Rail unions to stage demo over TfL funding

RAIL unions and politicians will rally this week to warn that public transport in London will grind to a halt without long-term financial planning.

The protest outside Parliament on Wednesday will be held days before a decision is expected on funding for Transport for London (TfL).

Unions and politicians have warned that bus and Tube services will be cut without more funds, with a likely hit to jobs.
