«Breaking News» Train strikes are set to cause chaos for rugby fans at Twickenham and festive shoppers

Rugby fans heading to Twickenham today face travel misery as workers at two of the biggest rail operators in the country support a fresh strike.

Saturday's strike is the latest in the long-running dispute over guards on trains and will affect fans travelling to watch England play against Japan as well as shoppers heading to Manchester's festive markets.

Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union on South Western Railway (SWR) and Arriva Rail North (Northern) mounted picket lines outside stations across the country.

The RMT union dispute will affect South Western and Arriva Rail North services and fans heading to Twickenham

Northern said only 30% of its services will run while both companies will lay on bus replacements on parts of their network.

Angry commuters took to Twitter to vent their frustrations at the latest train strikes. 

RMT general secretary Mick Cash said: 'RMT members are standing determined and united again this morning on both Northern and South Western Railway in the long-running fight for safety, security and access on our trains while the private train companies gamble with their passengers' well-being.

Saturday's strike is the latest in the long-running dispute over guards on trains and will affect several events

'This action comes as the political cheerleader of the driver-only train operational model, Transport Secretary Chris Grayling, weighs up his own self interest and a possible resignation from the collapsing May Government.

'It's time for both these companies to stop taking instructions from the Government, get out of the bunker and start talking seriously and positively with the union on the issue of the guard guarantee instead of gambling with public safety as they pump up their profits.

'We thank the public for their continuing support and understanding that these disputes are all about safety and passenger service on Britain's increasingly violent and dangerous railways.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
