THE suspension of the strikes scheduled for this week on the London Underground has of course been widely welcomed.
It followed London Mayor Sadiq Khan making more money available to reach a settlement with the RMT union, which had been preparing to take action against a real pay cut offer of a 5 per cent increase in wages by London Underground bosses.
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said that the union now looked forward to “negotiations with Transport for London in order to develop a suitable agreement and resolution to the dispute.”
