The statement was made during a week-long London Underground strike that has caused severe disruption across the capital and is estimated to cost London's economy at least £230m. RMT members are striking over pay and working hours, also demanding a reduced four-day working week. Transport for London (TfL) offered a 3.4 per cent pay rise, which was rejected, and said that the union's demand for a four-day week is unaffordable. Mr Dempsey said: “We make no apology for fighting hard for our members, and that’s why our members have got good conditions.”In fullTube drivers’ £72,000 salary not enough to buy house in London, union boss saysThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged in
