00:05We're asking for a change of direction and some progress.
00:08But of course I understand people's frustration.
00:10It's not what we want to do.
00:11Our members lose their pay as well.
00:13It's not the way that we want to go on.
00:16We want to be able to come to an agreement.
00:18Our members have delivered massive success for London Underground in recent years.
00:22We're back to the passenger numbers pre-COVID, 5 million journeys a day.
00:26We're doing that with 2,000 fewer staff.
00:30And what that's done is it's put a lot of pressure on people.
00:32The shifts have become more extreme.
00:35Dead early starts, four in the morning, 1am finishes, working around the weekends and bank holidays.
00:41And people need to see some progress.
