RMT chief Mick Lynch has warned further strikes “are very likely” later this year due to the gap between the union and the rail operators.
Speaking on Saturday, he told BBC Breakfast: “I’ll be talking to senior executives in the industry all through next week trying to create solutions to these problems and then we’ll decide whether we need to take more industrial action but I’ve got to say that it’s very likely given the gap between us at this time.”
Despite the severe travel disruption for many across the country, he said that the public is “right behind” the union as works to resolve issues surrounding pay, job cuts and working conditions.
