Description
The conciliation service ACAS is to hold informal discussions with both sides in the rail dispute later today. Railtrack and the RMT union are not expected to meet face to face until tomorrow. But as the signalworkers’ dispute seems to be nearing its climax, the RMT’s underground workers have voted five to two in favour of beginning strike action over a two percent pay offer. LBC’s Jason Kaye speaks to commuters at Charing Cross Station.
