Statement on National Express East Anglia Action Today
Bob Crow, RMT general secretary, said

National express have provoked this action and have alienated their entire workforce across all three unions. Those workers have shown that they are not prepared to take a hit to prop up the profits of a company whose management have shown that they are not fit to run rail services."
