Triple time plus a day off in lieu is extracting the urine with extreme prejudice. The only way I can see of getting rid of this sort of blackmail is driverless trains.
I'm very grateful I don't have to use the Underground more than once every month or so.
It would be a fantastic show of solidarity against the tube workers. Be great for boosting the old community spirit also.Comment

They are greedy, jealous twats overseen by militant arseholes who cry about safety whenever they fancy an extra cup of tea put in their contracts. Anybody would think they were indentured workers earning well below minimum wage from the rhetoric coming from the union leaders."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong.
