RMT votes for Tube strike action

Source PA News

Updated on 11 August 2010

The threat of Tube travel chaos has increased after members of the RMT transport union voted overwhelmingly for industrial action in a row over jobs and safety.

Of those taking part in a ballot, 76% voted for strike action and 88% for action short of a strike.

The RMT will now liaise with sister transport union TSSA - which will announce its own ballot result next week - on the next course of action.
