Rail, Transport and Maritime union (RMT) general secretary Mick Lynch is back on the war path. The straight-talking trade union leader did another round of the TV studios ahead of planned strikes. The results were predictable: posh, smug TV presenters left gaping.<\/p>\n
Strikes have been set for multiple days in December and January. The Morning Star<\/em> reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n The warning came after the Rail Delivery Group, which represents train operating companies, refused \u201cwithout any credible explanation to make promised written proposals\u201d which could have ended the six-month dispute, [RMT] said on Monday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n They added:<\/p>\n The walkouts, due to hit on December 13, 14, 16 and 17 and January 3, 4, 6 and 7, will take place alongside an overtime ban across the railways between December 18 and January 2, RMT confirmed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Among Lynch’s victims was shrieking Tory rent-a-gob Richard Madeley, to whom Lynch gave both barrels after being asked if the government was simply lying:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Richard Madeley \u201cSo you\u2019re accusing the government of a bare faced lie on this?\u201d — RMT (@RMTunion) November 23, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nLiars!<\/h2>\n
