TRANSPORT union RMT has pledged an industry-wide campaign of co-ordinated industrial action to smash through the government’s pay freeze.

RMT’s “Bust the transport worker pay freeze” campaign was launched as its research revealed that private rail companies alone were syphoning more than £570 million a year from the industry in profits, as inflation rose to 2.1 per cent.
