Steve Hedley on the RMT's rail strikes

The National Rail Maritime Transport union are striking on the 21st, 23rd and 25th June. They have tried to negotiate with the private companies that own our rail services, including foreign governments, but it's reached the point where talks have stalled and there's no option but strike. As passengers we need to show our support for these workers. We are told lies by media who use the salaries of highly skilled drivers to mask the poverty wages paid to other staff in the rail system . Please join us as we speak to Steve Hedley, former Assistant General Secretary of the RMT about how we can join pickets and show our support on social media and in our communities RMT Website:https://www.rmt.org.uk/home/Write your MP with this template:https://actionnetwork.org/letters/write-to-your-mp-railwayworkers/Resistance TV is a weekly show hosted by Chris Williamson the former Labour MP, Derby Council Leader and the founder of Resist Movement for a People's Party.
