Tens of thousands of workers on its railroads, post offices and ports Britannia went on strike again as of yesterday, demanding higher wages in line with inflation, in the context of the biggest wave of strikes the country has seen in 30 years.

Today, the entire transport network of London is expected to be paralyzed, while a strike on the railways began yesterday and will last until tomorrow.

The company that runs the country’s railroad network has announced that only one of the five lines will operate.

The eight-day strike begins on Sunday at the port of Felixstowe in the east of England, the UK’s biggest port for unloading cargo ships.

Paralysis of the London transport network

London’s transport network is expected to be paralyzed today due to strikes by underground and bus workers.

Problems are expected today on all lines of the London Underground, the movement of suburban trains in the capital will be reduced, and bus service in west London will also be limited, Transport for London (TFL) said.

Data showed inflation at 10.1% in July, the highest level since February 1982, as rising energy prices due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine hit consumers directly through their household accounts and indirectly through rising food prices. .

Workers in other UK businesses are also planning future strikes or are already taking action.
