Rail strikes & stress on hospitality

It's the first day of a series of strikes where 40,000 rail workers will walk out across the country until the weekend. 

Britain’s train services have effectively been brought to a standstill while Transport Secretary Mark Harper and RMT leader Mick Lynch continue to publicly point the finger at each other over who is to blame for the disruption. 

The Evening Standard’s City Hall Editor & Transport Editor, Ross Lydall, asked Lynch on the picket line about whether there is any hope of resolution.

In part two, Jack Stein, Chef Director of Rick Stein Restaurants explains the impact the strikes are already having on the hospitality sector as the industry faces one of its toughest winters yet.
