[DBA_bloke]

Up the workers!

FYI: according to the BBC, the lines affected will be the Bakerloo, Central and Victoria.

So, here's the situation:

Company goes bust.
Workers are told that they can keep their jobs.
Workers are told that they keep their pensions.
Workers are told that they will not be made redundant.
Workers are told they will not have to transfer to a new company.
Workers are going on strike.
Unions wonder why they get no sympathy from the general public.

I might be missing something here but as it all transferred to TfL when Metronet went into administration all the jobs conditions etc would be covered under the TUPE regulations?
