The RMT strike will take place on 13 May, when the Eurovision final will be held in Liverpool, and follows the first Aslef strike on 12 May.įurther drivers’ strikes will be held on 31 May, and 3 June, the day of the FA Cup final when many fans will be travelling from north-west England to London to see two Manchester teams play at Wembley. The RMT’s leader, Mick Lynch, said negotiators at the train operators had been pressured by government to renege on a 9% offer the union had been considering for several weeks, by making the first year’s pay deal contingent on withdrawing its mandate for strike action. The trains affected include the main intercity and commuter services around England, as well as some on cross-border routes to cities and towns in Scotland and Wales. Major events including the Eurovision song contest and the FA Cup final will be affected by the strikes, which are likely to stop most, if not all, trains at the companies involved. ![]()
