A large rally took place outside Liverpool Lime Street station this afternoon on the last of three days of strike action which has paralysed the rail network.
Among those joining the approximately 200 people present was Royle Family star Ricky Tomlinson, along with local MPs Dan Carden, Ian Byrne, Kim Johnson and Paula Barker - who defied Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer's instructions for MPs not to join picket lines.
The Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) called three 24-hour strikes this week, on Tuesday, Thursday and today (Saturday), although the knock-on effects meant that train services were disrupted throughout the week.
