'We're sorry to inconvenience you but we urge you to direct your anger and frustration at the govt and the railway employers during this latest phase of action' says RMT general secretary Mick Lynch. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

"Yet, Network Rail have failed to make an improved offer on jobs, pay and conditions for our members during the last two weeks of talks.

"They cancelled the meeting at an hour's notice, and we can sense the hand of the Tory government in this as we believe that they are not allowing an offer to be made."Last week the union wasTim Shoveller, Network Rail's chief negotiator, said:"No-one can deny the precarious financial hole in which the railway finds itself. Striking makes that hole bigger and the task of finding a resolution ever more difficult.

"We will not give-up and hope that the RMT will return to the table next week with a more realistic appreciation of the situation."

Ebenezer - (The Grinch) -Scrooge... the man who trashed Christmas..... Mick Lynch ........

4 weeks worth of strikes🤷🏻‍♂️. Hold travellers to ransom and strike everyday for the whole of 2023😉

“Russia is cold but Russian colder”

Does he think the working class want to strike on the run up to Xmas and have less in their pay packets?

Maybe question Mark_J_Harper & HuwMerriman on why they have failed to act on the blocking of talks.

The Tory's have stopped the train companies from negotiating. The Tories are to blame not the unions.

He's loving it isn't he..

My poor teens both had things planned the weekends they are striking, will be giving the taxi drivers and buses more I guess instead, Mick Lynch is doing his job but I find him condescending and narcissistic, guess he needs to be

chilternrailway get this sorted, offer your staff a fair deal and get your service in order.

RMTunion They should stop messing about with 2days strike which doesn't have much of an effect, people can sort things for a couple of days. Try a strike for 1 or 2wks that should make them realise you're serious

All of them need a sack. Wait until the run up to Xmas to strike... Let me just add, no one sympathises when you are obstructing the economy for Xmas. Even the corporate world.

Thick Mick!

Solidarity.
