The Aslef union announced drivers will take part in rolling one-day walkouts from 7 May until 9 May while a six-day overtime ban will begin on Bank Holiday Monday on 6 May.This will affect all national rail operators contracted to the Department for Transport after members voted overwhelmingly in February to continue action.Aslef is looking to settle a long-running pay dispute with the rail companies with little progress being made since they first took action in July 2022.
"Since then, train drivers have voted, again and again, to take action to get a pay rise."That's why Mark Harper, the transport secretary, is being disingenuous when he says that offer should have been put to members. Drivers would not vote to strike if they thought an offer was acceptable.
