In separate inquiries, an official employment tribunal found both workers were unfairly discharged.In a face-saving move for the city, the tribunal concluded that although Thomas was unjustly fired, it wasn't because of his union activism. Both operators have been reinstated and the strikes called off.
Mayor Boris Johnson said: ‘I am delighted that the RMT has called off the strike. There was never any justification or need to wield industrial muscle to pre-empt a proper disciplinary procedure.
‘Arwyn Thomas was not victimised for being a member of the union and the employment tribunal agreed with that. The tribunal also agreed that his behaviour had been abusive, which is unacceptable.’
oink oink, squeal squeal.
