Arriva bus drivers continue their strike in the hopes of what they see as a fair pay rise.
There has been no breakthrough in a dispute between Arriva and the Unite and GMB unions which has seen continuous strikes held since last Wednesday. During each day of the industrial action there will be no Arriva bus services operating anywhere within Merseyside.
The ECHO headed down to the St Helens picket line on Jackson Street to catch up with striking drivers and union members. Strikers gathered outside the St Helens Arriva depot, where they have received a mostly positive response from passers-by.
