UK Faces Biggest Rail Strike In 30 Years

LONDON, ENGLAND - HUNE 21: Striking RMT members join the picket line at Elephant and Castle station (also a tube strike in London on this day) on June 21, 2022 in London, United Kingdom. The biggest rail strikes in 30 years started on Monday night with trains cancelled across the UK for much of the week. The action is being taken by Network Rail employees plus onboard and station staff working for 13 train operators across England. Thousands of jobs are at risk in maintenance roles and ticket office closures were planned as well as pay freezes during the cost of living crisis, says the RMT union.
