Rail strike: 'We need to stand up to this government' says RMT worker

One striking RMT rail worker says he is costing his family money to fight for what he believes is right.

Speaking from the picket line at Orpington station in East London, the man, who wished to remain anonymous, said:

"We don't want to inconvenience anyone... but we're all being inconvenienced in a way with inflation... and everyone in every position needs to stand up to this government."
