Hi all,

I need some more information about the upcoming RMT▸ (National Union of Rail, Maritime & Transport Workers) Union Strikes.Pay disputes seem like an issue that will never go away for anbody. It incredibly difficult made even worse by mismanagement mainly by the government. It's a shame, but oh well people have got to stand up for their rights. What exactly are they planning to do?

Thanks for any information in advance  Smiley
