CITY VIEWS: WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE TUBE STRIKE?
JOHN CRIDLAND | CBI
“It is disappointing that the RMT and TSSA have decided to go ahead with this strike, which will disrupt London at work. It will cause misery and disruption to the general public and to employers.”
COLIN STANBRIDGE | LCCI
“Londoners will still struggle in to work, aided by the additional transport laid on by the mayor. However, the world’s leading business centre will suffer.”
PHILIP HAMMOND | TRANSPORT SECRETARY
“A tube strike would be bad for passengers, bad for business and bad for London. At a time when public finances are under pressure any strike by tube workers will be seriously damaging – undermining the case we are making within the spending review for continued investment in the Tube.”
