MP calls for unions to end Southern dispute
Lewes MP has met with unions bosses to call for an end to the Southern rail dispute today (Tuesday July 18).
Train drivers’ union ASLEF has introduced a ban on overtime working in response to Govia Thameslink Railway’s driver-only operation proposals, and is due to hold three days of strike action at the start of August in a separate dispute over pay.
Meanwhile the RMT union, which represents conductors who have been transferred to the role of on-board supervisor, has instructed its members not to book any shifts on the same three days.
