Tubeworker 27 February 2004: We need a political voice!

Submitted by AWL on 27 February, 2004 - 10:18

Now the Labour Party has kicked out the RMT, Tubeworker discusses what the rail unions should do next. It argues for a concerted fight to overturn the Blairites, and for establishing firm principles as to who the union should back in elections - only democratic, working-class socialists.
Also in this issue, Tubeworker sets out what a multi-year pay deal must contain if it is to be acceptable. It also campaigns for a Yes vote in the Metronet strike ballot, and for improved rights for reserve and pool workers.

Workplace reports include the success of drivers in winning back the pay that London Underground took away when they refused to drive during the FBU strike; the appalling treatment of staff with long-term illness; and more safety breaches caused by privatisation.
