Christmas rail strikes will cost pubs, restaurants and hotels £1.5 billion, industry bosses have warned, with punters likely to stay home instead
But bosses of pubs, clubs, restaurants and hotels begged unions to call off the latest round of strikes, claiming that their businesses would lose out on more than a billion pounds if they went ahead.
Nik Antona, CAMRA's chairman, said: "Pubs, clubs, breweries and cider producers are in an impossible position, facing a perfect storm of rising costs, soaring energy bills and customers tightening their belts.
Thousands of RMT members across 14 train operators and Network Rail are due to stage two 48-hour strikes later this month after union bosses turned down the pay rise offer from the rail delivery group . He added: “The RDG and Department of Transport, who sets their mandate, both knew this offer would not be acceptable to RMT members.
