UK train strikes underway with union and government in standoff – BBC News


Train passengers are braced for major disruption this week, as a series of strikes is set to bring the UK’s rail network to a standstill.

About 40,000 rail workers are walking out on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday as part of a long-running row over jobs, pay and conditions.

It comes after members of the UK’s biggest rail union, the RMT, rejected fresh pay offers and vowed to fight on.

But the government says it will not back down, despite the "damage" done.
