 | I am a member of the ASLEF Parliamentary group and have worked with the union on a wide range of issues and campaigns of direct concern to the union and its members both nationally and locally. |
| Very glad to hear ASLEF and the RMT realise who is representing their members' interests (Blair and Brown certainly haven't and won't). |
| Very glad to hear ASLEF and the RMT realise who is representing their members' interests not to mention the interests of the vast majority of the electorate (Blair and Brown certainly haven't and won't). |

| ASLEF has continually expressed its deep concern over the fragmentation of the London Underground by dividing the operations of the trains and stations from the core of the Underground — the track, signalling, bridges, tunnels, lifts escalators, stations and train maintenance. |
| ASLEF takes the view that as the London Underground is publicly owned, and it is the public that indirectly pays for the system, the public should have access to the maximum amount of information in order to pass any acceptable judgement on contracts. |
| ASLEF argues that the PPP structure may allow for a "fudging" of responsibilities and the fear of a "two-tier workforce" — that is, where PPPs lead to new employees being offered less generous terms and conditions that those workers who were originally transferred from the public sector. |
