Members of the biggest rail workers’ union have voted to renew their mandate to continue taking industrial action for the next six months in the long-running dispute over pay and conditions.The RMT has announced a strike against train companies on May 13, the day of the Eurovision Song Contest final in Liverpool.
“It is clear from these results that members are not prepared to accept a pay offer based on mass job cuts and major attacks on their terms and conditions. “They need to get around the table with RMT and negotiate in good faith for a better deal for rail workers.”
