Arriva bus strikes to continue as latest pay offer overwhelmingly rejected

The Arriva bus strikes will continue after a ballot on a new pay offer was overwhelmingly rejected.

The ECHO has seen the results of the latest vote, which saw 79% of members vote against the latest pay offer from Arriva, understood to be in the region of 9.6%. It means the continuous strikes will continue into a 29th day tomorrow.

The action has been taking place every day since July 20 as drivers and workers fight for a fairer pay deal. During that period there have been no Arriva buses available across the whole of Merseyside.
