I've just got off the Tube. The announcement which is being tannoyed across the network is that the cessation of service is due to 'Metronet industrial action'.

No, it isn't. The company is in administration but it is functioning properly. What is not functioning is the RMT, which has called this unforgiveable and pointless strike - a strike with no purpose.

So why doesn't the Tube announcement say what is going on, and call it 'RMT industrial action'?
