What has been mentioned in regards to the strikes?
The union claims drivers haven’t had a pay rise since 2019.
ASLEF General Secretary Mick Whelan mentioned: “We have given the government every opportunity to come to the table but it is now a year since we had any contact from the Department for Transport. It’s clear they do not want to resolve this dispute.
“Many members have no longer had a single penny improve in pay for half a decade, throughout which period inflation has soared and, with it, the price of residing. We did not ask for a rise in the course of the pandemic, after we labored via lockdown, as key employees, risking our lives, to maneuver items across the nation and allow NHS and different employees to get to work.”
He urged the government to “come to the desk” to finish the dispute.
