September 1st - There's no solution in sight to national rail strikes

from Simon Calder's Independent Travel Podcast

I'm at Euston today for the latest national rail strike. I've counted that it's the 16th month since the strikes began. I spoke to Mick Whelan, general secretary of the Aslef trade union. He says that national rail workers have run out of capacity and considering that they have gone for five years without a pay rise the strikes will continue until they get what they want.This podcast is free, much like my weekly newsletter.
