Plenty of people reap the benefits of the Union. I know plenty of people who would also take RDW if a strike came to fruition. The same people who moan about the Union don’t mind that they have secured fantastic benefits, even more so during Covid-19 (current signallers will know all about this).
The job is well paid and garnished now but it wasn’t 30 years ago. I personally say don’t join the RMT unless you’re willing to one day have to give up a week or so wage for a strike should it happen.
Or 9 in my guard days - we won (of sorts though).
