94 per cent of union members have voted to strike
Robert Currie, an RAF veteran, and local tram worker David Brown, are employed by Keolis , which forms part of the group of companies which runs the Nottingham Express Transit tram network.
Mr Currie, who has been threatened with a loss of income, said: “It’s overwhelming to see this act of solidarity from GMB members. “The threats of loss of income have had a huge impact on me and my family, after years of loyal service on the trams. To see GMB members have my back like this gives me hope.”
In response GMB members took to the ballot box. Now, the company behind Nottingham’s trams has been asked to act urgently to avoid “chaos over Christmas ”.“I hope that NET recognise the depth of feeling amongst tram staff about the treatment of their terminally ill colleagues and get round the negotiating table to resolve this dispute.”
