Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend Tube strike suspended as TfL make 'significant progress' with union

A planned strike by workers at two London Underground stations over the Jubilee weekend has been suspended.

Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union at Green Park and Euston Tube stations were due to walk out on June 3 in a row over allegations of bullying.

The union said “significant progress” had been made during talks with LU, leading to an agreement to have a review with union involvement to deal with the issue.

RMT said if no immediate improvements are seen and the review does not lead to a just settlement, strike action for a different day will be called.

RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: “London Underground has finally seen sense to take the union’s arguments seriously regarding workplace bullying and we will now suspend to the strike on June 3 to hopefully reach a resolution quickly.”
