Starting pay for London tube captain £40k. With 6 weeks off and 35hrs /week = £24.84/hr. RYR Captain €130 - €4.5 (training) = €125.5 = £103.95/hr.
Come now, if there is to be discussion then at least make it a level playing field. The thread is about the FO exodus to the sand pit, I'm sure the starting wage for FO's at RYR is 103.95 per hour. There is no such thing as a Tube 'Captain' they have a course which culminates in a check journey and then a very short period of supervised driving.
(A mate of mine works for TFL as a tube driver and he also doesn't like Bob Crow)
