Aslef strike: Train drivers vote for more strikes for next 6 months over pay dispute

Rail journeys in the UK will continue to be disrupted at least until the end of the year after train drivers have voted in favour of continuing strike action for the next six months over a pay dispute with the government.

Aslef, the union that represents 16 railway companies across the United Kingdom, announced that its members have voted ‘overwhelmingly’ to continue strike action in the union’s ongoing national dispute over pay, with more than 90% voting in favour of industrial action.
