German union barons threaten to derail Euros
Sunday Express
|June 02, 2024
GERMAN union barons have threatened to wreck Euro 2024 for hundreds of thousands of visiting fans by staging crippling train strikes.
Rail workers will walk out during the monthlong football tournament unless more is done to protect staff from passenger abuse.
In a move echoing Mick Lynch - firebrand general secretary of the RMT - the leader of the German Rail Workers' Union Kristian Loroch vowed: "We will make sure that the trains won't run." Mr Loroch said staff would down tools during the tournament by cutting back on overtime, significantly disrupting services.
Euro 24 will kick off in Berlin on June 14.
UEFA has pinned its success on train travel between the country's host cities by offering cheap 30 euro fares to matchgoers.
