Three weeks into indefinite strike action and the Unite Arriva bus strike across Yorkshire remains solid. Across the five depots in Yorkshire, just a handful of school bus services are running.
Mid-Yorkshire NHS workers sent a message of solidarity, to both Unite bus strikers and RMT rail strikers.
“We fully support our fellow ‘key workers’ in their struggle against redundancies and for a decent pay rise.
“We remember how they, like us in the NHS, kept the country moving during the Covid pandemic by putting themselves at risk on the front line, whilst government ministers partied, and the bosses stayed at home.
“Many NHS workers rely on public transport to get to and from work. We expect the workers who provide these vital services to be paid decent wages, free from the threat of redundancy
“We call for an integrated transport system under democratic public control.
“A victory for one is a victory for all!”
