“Last ditch talks are being held to try and avert a strike on Orkney's outer isles ferries. The RMT union has given formal notice that it intends to take strike action at noon on Monday for four days after crews rejected a pay offer of 2.5%. However, Orkney Ferries say there is no more money on the table.
If Friday's talks fail, there will be all out strike on the boats which serve Westray, Papa Westray, Sanday, Stronsay, Eday, and North Ronaldsay.”
The full story is here.What are your thoughts on the situation? If the strike goes ahead will you be greatly inconvenienced? Would you support strike action? Let us know what you think…
