Hide AdGeneral secretary Mick Cash said: ‘Earlier this month the Transport Select Committee exposed the ongoing shambles that is Southern Rail.
‘The demonstration and rally on November 1 will be a chance to show not only RMT’s opposition to Southern’s profit-motivated drive to get rid of guards on trains.
‘But it will also hear from those who will be most affected by the proposed cuts, including pensioners and the disabled.’
