RMT accuses Chancellor of fuelling the climate change crisis

RMT General Secretary Mick Cash said:

“In the first Budget of the new decade we needed a clear commitment to the greatest investment in public transport ever, instead we get this Tory Government celebrating over the largest investment in roads ever.

“We’re facing a transport crisis and a climate crisis and after over 25 years of failed privatisation and a decade of Tory austerity our rail and bus network is a mess but yet again this Government continues its obsession with the private road user.”
