Grant Shapps – 2022 Comments on Train Drivers’ Pay

The comments made by Grant Shapps, the Secretary of State for Transport, on Twitter on 27 July 2022.

Train drivers already earn almost 60k but clearly that’s not enough for ASLEF bosses, who have called more strikes designed to hurt the people they claim to stand for, and who on average earn far less. Taxpayers gave £600 p/household to the railway during Covid and deserve better.
