Petition Action

Stop RMT & ASLEF unions from further strikes on Govia Thameslink Railway lines.

Petition Details

The government should call on the unions to stop further strikes on GTR railways. Several months of striking in 2016/17 has achieved nothing but misery for commuters and passengers, who's lives have been severely disrupted. Further strikes have been threatened by the unions will continue to do so.

Additional Information

Strikes have not helped resolving the Driver Operated Only doors dispute with GTR and will not benefit any of the stakeholders if more are called.
