Men fight and lose the battle, and the thing that they fought for comes about in spite of their defeat, and when it comes turns out not to be what they meant, and other men have to fight for what they meant under another name. (William Morris - A Dream of John Ball)

Save Our Stations

Worrying news for all those of us who commute to work in Greater London.



London Underground plans to close or cut most of its ticket offices, and to reduce station staffing by over 1,000 staff. 



To provide customer service and safety, tube stations need more staff not fewer.



Popular opposition stopped planned ticket office closures in 2008; now we need the same popular opposition to stop them again. 



The RMT has set up a petition against the job cuts on the 10 Downing Street website. It will take you just a minute or so to add your name, and give a big boost to their campaign to save jobs.

The petition reads: We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Stop plans to close ticket offices and cut staff on London Underground.
