Railways across the UK are facing major disruption as thousands of rail workers start a series of strikes over the Christmas period, and that's just the latest action in what is shaping up to be a winter of labor unrest
LONDON, Dec 13 - The United Kingdom recorded the highest number of working days lost to labour disputes in October for more than 10 years, official data showed on Tuesday, as employees went on strike to demand higher pay in the face of soaring inflation.
The Office for National Statistics said 417,000 working days were lost to strikes in October, the highest since November 2011 when just under a million days were lost due to public sector workers walking out in a row over pension reforms. The government says the pay rises being demanded are unaffordable and hiking pay to match inflation would only worsen the problem.
