As we have reported previously in Tubeworker, Metronet has been waging war on its employees, through 'outsourcing' (reprivatising stuff that has already been privatised), 'reorganisation' (aka. job losses), attacks on our pensions, and failure to progress with our 35-hour week.

Enough is enough, and, not before time, RMT has decided to ballot Metronet members for strike action. What we need now is a mass meeting, so rank-and-file Metronet workers can drive this dispute and ensure that it is organised as effectively as possible.
