Good Morning Britain host Richard Madeley has come under fire for his comments over potential rail strikes.
Railway workers have voted overwhelmingly to strike in a bitter dispute over jobs, pay and conditions, threatening massive disruption to the network in the coming weeks. Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union at Network Rail and 15 train operators backed launching a campaign of industrial action.
RMT boss Mick Lynch appeared on GMB on Wednesday to discuss why workers are considering striking. He said employees have not had a pay rise in three years, and that with some "basically" on minimum wage, the cost of living crisis means they are really feeling the squeeze.
