RMT calls another 24-hour walkout next month

The RMT has called another 24-hour strike on 2 June, using the powers it obtained after the most recent ballot of its members which approved further industrial action over the next six months. The union said its had found the Rail Delivery Group’s previous offer and associated conditions ‘unacceptable’ and despite contact between the parties since the strike on 13 May, ‘no new proposals have been formulated for the RMT to consider’. Both the RDG and the DfT have urged the union to ballot its members on the latest offer.
