TO ALL LUL STATION GRADES MEMBERS AT CHARING CROSS, ELEPHANT & CASTLE AND PICCADILLY CIRCUS 

 

Dear RMT Member, 

 

DISMISSAL, G. NJAKA – LONDON UNDERGROUND

 

You should now have received and returned your ballot paper for the above which was posted to you on Wednesday 15^th May. It is vital that we achieve the highest possible turnout and the highest possible vote saying YES for action to demand that the Company immediately reinstates Brother Njaka.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE ON BALLOT THRESHOLDS

 

Since the Trade Union Act 2016, where the government made the anti-trade union laws even more restrictive, all ballots have to reach two important thresholds in order for them to be valid. 

 

• At least 50% of all eligible members must vote 
• At least 40% of all those eligible to vote must vote Yes.  

 

As a result of these draconian restrictions every single vote counts. A simple majority is no longer enough so you cannot rely on other colleagues to get the vote over the line. Therefore, I urge you to complete and return your voting paper as soon as you receive it

 

If you have not yet returned your voting paper, then please do so now as the ballot closes on Thursday 30^th May 2024. If you have not yet received your voting paper, then please contact the freephone helpline on 0800 376 3706or email info@rmt.org.uk to receive a replacement ballot paper.

 

VOTE YES FOR STRIKE ACTION AND ACTION SHORT OF A STRIKE

 

RETURN YOUR BALLOT PAPER

 

Yours sincerely

 

Michael Lynch 

General Secretary
