hello there. as you have heard, last minute talks to avoid strike action on the uk s rail network have failed. now, millions of people will face travel misery as the biggest rail strike in 30 years brings services to a standstill in england, scotland and wales. the first strike started this morning and more are planned on most major lines on thursday and saturday. the rmt union says its members oppose stagnating pay and want justice. but industry bodies have warned against a strike action, saying it would shatter hopes of recovery for many businesses . joining me now is dr roger barker, director of policy at the institute of directors. thank you forjoining me today. is it fair to say that businesses will go under this week as a result of the strike? that may well be the case. this is gonna have a big impact on business. that impact will be quite uneven. some of us will be able to go back to working, taking off where we left off during covid. other sectors won t be able to do
