Unfortunately, commuters in London were bracing for a strike on Wednesday and Friday this week due to an ongoing dispute between the RMT Union and the London Underground. Fortunately, the RMT Union has announced that these strikes have now been called off.
Mick Lynch, the RMT general secretary, celebrated the victory, though the dispute is still not entirely resolved. He said, "I congratulate all our members who were prepared to take strike action and our negotiations team for securing this victory in our tube dispute. Without the unity and industrial power of our members, there is no way we would have been able to make the progress we have."
The strike would have caused widespread disruption, as it would have involved around 3,000 RMT union members. It's a great relief that the strike has been called off, and hopefully a lasting resolution can be found between both parties in the near future.
