The UK’s biggest rail union, the RMT, has called another national strike on Friday 2 June – and demanded that the government “unlocks” the employers to reach a settlement in a long and bitter dispiute over pay and working arrangements.
The 24-hour walk-out by up to 20,000 staff will take place between the next two strikes by train drivers belonging to the Aslef union, on Wednesday 31 May and Saturday 3 June.
