	RMT protesters and supporters met up in the rain outside Euston Station and decided to protest outside the main entrance where there is a statue of Robert Stephenson 'Don't Let Boris Throw Jobs Down the Tube' Boris lied in his election campaign, promising not to make the cuts in tube staffing he is now making The TUSC banner at the protest
	Cut Fares Not Staff - the RMT postcard and a placard 'Boris: Lying to London' There were probably more police than protesters at Euston - and the protesters stayed outside the station TUSC banner Cut Fares Not Staff placard from Hands Off London Transport Some schoolgirls came and joined in Robert Stephenson and a placard. Stephenson was Conservative MP for Whitby from 1847 to his death in 1859, and was not regarded highly as a politician, accused of furthering his own projects and having a mind closed to new ideas. His re-election in 1852 was only acheived by various dirty tricks, including a riot in Whitby started by the Conservative party after he lost the seat on a show of hands at the nomination.
