RMT Press Office:
Today RMT members delivered a strong vote in favour of accepting the latest proposals on the train operating companies and Network Rail.
This means the national rail dispute is now concluded.
This outcome reflects the collective efforts of our membership in defending their jobs, working conditions, pay, and pensions from the attacks of the previous Tory government and their private contractors.
We thank our members for their efforts during this long but successful campaign.
Their resolve has been essential in navigating the challenges posed during negotiations and in particular the previous Tory government’s refusal to negotiate in good faith, alongside relentless attacks by sections of the media and the employers.
RMT remains focused and committed to supporting public ownership as a path to building a stronger future for the rail industry for both workers and passengers.
END
Notes:
- Train Operating Companies: 98.8% 'yes' vote on a 80.7% turnout
- Network Rail: 88.7% 'yes' vote on a 79.7% turnout
