Originally published by London Assembly Liberal Democrats

Caroline Pidgeon, the Liberal Democrat London Assembly Transport Spokesperson, commenting on the RMT's 48 hour strike starting later this evening said:

"The RMT have long been spoiling for a fight. This is a pointless strike which will inconvenience millions of people and severely damage London's economy.

"At a time of a deep recession and rapidly rising unemployment the RMT seem determined to just add further misery to the hundreds of thousands of people who are struggling to keep their jobs."
