RMT protest Ticket Office Closures

Elephant & Castle (Bakerloo), London. Fri 27 Mar 2015

  
 
 The ticket office is closed, but at the moment only because of staff shortages. But TfL plan to close it permanently in July

 Most other ticket offices are also being closed and there will be around 900 fewer station staff on London Underground

 

 People hand out leaflets and get petition signatures. The station was fairly busy although it wasn't quite the rush hour

 and I often found I had to wait for people to get out of my way when taking these pictures

 

 Some of the RMT members held up a banner for me to photograph
 
Others out of the picture were still handing out fliers 

 

More people arrived to take part in the protest 

 

 

 

 

Kingsley Abrams is standing for the TUSC in Bermondsey & Old Southwark. He stood in the same constituency (renamed
after minor boundary changes) as a Labour candidate in 2001 coming second to Simon Hughes with 11,359 votes.
