RMT Heathrow Taxis.: March 2011
http://rmtheathrow.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 20 March 2011. You Can't Do It On Your Own. On March 4 2011 the RMT won a Court of Appeal victory which has effectively stopped employers from taking away the right of workers to take industrial action. This has been a victory for millions of union workers, and it has also highlighted some of the “bullying” tactics that many employers use to keep their employees in line. The case was RMT v Serco. So what has this got to do with self employed taxi drivers at Heathrow? Taxi trade works, but that in...

RMT Heathrow Taxis.: June 2012
http://rmtheathrow.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Friday, 22 June 2012. We still don't seem to have been able to get to grips with the number of drivers who don't go through the Taxi Feeder Park at Heathrow Airport. It is a legal requirement that ALL taxi drivers pass through the TFP before proceeding to the terminals' ranks. 9(10) Taxi feeder park;. May direct or allow a driver to proceed to an "Authorised Standing". Without first going through the TFP.

RMT Heathrow Taxis.: November 2010
http://rmtheathrow.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, 25 November 2010. The latest copy of Taxi Globe (issue 647, 24 November) carries a very worrying announcement issued by Heathrow Taxis (HALTS) on page 4. What troubles me, is that after making it clear that there will be no more cash payments for voucher jobs, and then retracting that condition after huge pressure from the trade, this contradictory piece of information appears in one of the most respected journals in the taxi trade! Why not have it paid into your kid's piggy bank, or even bette...

RMT Heathrow Taxis.: September 2010
http://rmtheathrow.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, 19 September 2010. Some helpful soul contacted Taxicab News and had the RMT advice not to join the Heathrow Taxis (HALTS) credit card scheme printed in issue 144. The advice, which was originally posted on this blog-site 12 July 2010, was a follows,. We have grave concerns regarding the integrity of HALTS, and will not sanction its validity by signing up to, what we believe is, a flawed system. There can be no exclusion.

Saturday, 25 December 2010. All HALT members should be aware that Colin Evans is trying to have HALT "struck off" by the FSA so that HALTS can go unchallenged with its plans to take the business away from its legitimate owners, i.e. Heathrow drivers. If you are a HALT member, please show your disapproval of this move by emailing me at Roman@rmt.org.uk. I will be happy to register your disapproval with the FSA on behalf of ALL. You have been warned. London Taxi Branch RMT. Wednesday, 8 December 2010.
