This is what we all want and Mark Harper could achieve it with one phone call and simply offer aslef the same no strings offer that has been offered to the RMT, it really is that simple.

I think thats what everyone is thinking, I'd love to know the reason why aslef aren't being offered the same as the RMT, it's absolute madness!!

I think that's the vote for the rmt offer you're referring to, aslef already have a strike mandate. 1700061057 Aslef already has a mandate to strike with 2 weeks notice, so the Christmas period is definitely on the cards

Don’t you mean Neville Hill?

@Busyboy89 Who interviewed you?

The link still states low tone at whistle boards?

Not so long ago rumour had it Colas we’re going to buy DB, now the rumour is Colas are pulling out of freight alltogether. Freightliner buying DB? Really can’t see it, just another messroom bull****ter.

Retirements? Most who were thinking of retiring took redundancy 12 months ago.

You are paid every 4 weeks, the next pay date is 24/08/18. If you start half way through you will be paid for the weeks you have worked.
