The Rail, Maritime and Transport Union (RMT) has announced two new Strike Dates, August 26 and September 2, affecting 14 train operating companies. Around 20,000 staff members will strike, causing widespread disruption to rail services over the August Bank holiday weekend, a busy travel period. The strikes are part of an ongoing dispute over pay, job security, and working conditions. The RMT claims they have received no improved offer from the Rail Delivery Group, while the group argues that the RMT executive has blocked their latest offer without explanation. The impasse is affecting staff, customers, and communities that rely on the railway.
