Follow on Google News |  Christmas Mayhem Plotted by Rail Militants to Affect Sales and Festive HolidaysRail unions have targeted helpless families looking to embark on a Christmas getaway and also those looking to take advantage of Boxing Day sales with a series of strikes. Are today being urged to rethink their strike action that will bring misery.
By: Bad Credit Loans 4 You London Underground have today again, urged workers to reconsider their strike action aimed over the Christmas period which is sure to bring untold misery to thousands. The militant walkouts are aimed at preventing people from travelling on 23rd December to stay with relatives and also to stop shoppers reaching the sales three days later. “Families are said to be shocked that there are such a great number of people out there who are willing to risk ruining the festive season for so many others,” said Andrew James, spokesperson for Bad Credit Loans 4 You, a UK finance specialist at sourcing bad credit holiday loans and holiday finance http://www.bad- “Many have planned their trips all year, saving Christmas money or taking out bad credit holiday loans to ensure the trip goes ahead and yet they might be thwarted at the last hurdle.” The strike action comes as the RMT union’s infamous hard-line general secretary, Bob Crow, said he ‘couldn’t care less’ if his members staged ‘a million strikes’. He went on to stress that such militancy was a central part of his union’s ‘brand’. Mr Crow added that it was not his job to think of how many passengers will be grossly affected over the festive season, saying; “Our organisation is purely to look after our members.” Tube workers in London are striking over demands for triple pay and a day off in lieu for those working on Boxing Day. Union militants have been accused of ‘holding people to ransom’ by making a move which has been branded by Underground bosses as ‘disgraceful’ Traditionally shoppers make a special trip from outside the capital, travelling to London in order to take advantage of the sales at major department stores on Oxford Street, Regent Street and other big shopping centres. “Driving and parking in London during the sales is normally a nightmare,” confirmed Mr James, of Bad Credit Loans 4 You. “Many people figure that using the rail network is the easiest way to get around, but any strike action would cause total disarray.” “Outside of London, university students or elderly relatives who have taken holiday finance to visit family will be left stuck.” The Boxing Day Tube strike comes after militant staff from the ASLEF union backed industrial action by nine votes to one, threatening disruption to Christmas shoppers and football fans in the capital. Keith Norman, general secretary for ASLEF, said; “It is painfully obvious to any reasonable person that Boxing Day is not an ordinary working day and therefore it is no surprise that ASLEF members have reacted in the way they have.” Transport for London said; “It is disgraceful that ASLEF should try to hold Londoners and London Underground to ransom in this way.” “London Underground has a long-standing agreement with all of its trade unions which cover staff working arrangements on bank holidays, and Boxing Day is included in that agreement.” “London Underground has made every effort to resolve this issue with the ASLEF leadership, which has refused to attend talks at ACAS to discuss its claim.” Mick Whelan, a union official said the strike revolved around a dispute arising from the fact that London Midland was formed from two previous franchises, Silverlink and Central Trains. Mr Whelan said; “We have been negotiating for three years to harmonise the conditions of drivers from the two companies – over 600 in all – but our efforts have been resisted by management all the way.” Theresa Villiers, Conservative Rail Minister, said; “Passengers would be the innocent victims of these strikes. I would urge the unions to find another way to resolve this issue.” Bad Credit Loans 4 You helps out people who fear they have been blacklisted because of past poor credit history which could include CCJ’s and defaults, arrears, late credit card payments or repossessions.
