"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"This deal is a clear demonstration of the effectiveness of strike action and strong negotiation by our members. It is significant that RMT has secured a long-term RPI (inflation) deal that departs from the recent industry approach of linking pay to flawed productivity discussions and measures of inflation that do not include housing costs. More widely, RMT members will expect to see a similar approach in other parts of the transport industry."
London Underground staff will receive a three-year pay deal following five days of strike action in September and sustained negotiations. The agreement includes commitments to fatigue-friendly rosters, further talks on staff travel, and a £400 payment for those working on Boxing Day. RMT described the deal as evidence of effective strike action and praised the long-term RPI (inflation) arrangement that avoids linking pay to disputed productivity measures and inflation metrics excluding housing costs. The RMT expects similar terms across the transport industry. The reporting organization emphasizes free public access to journalism funded by donations.
