FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The employees of Spain’s National Train Company staged a three-hour strike on Friday, saying the railway service is under-staffed and that authorities have failed to comply with an agreement to hire more people.
“Railway companies are being badly managed. It’s taking funds away from where they should be – that is from the consumer and those who travel. This station, for example, doesn’t have the funds it should have and we want it to hire more workers,” said Juan Carlos Cabello of the Comisiones Obrers Union.
The workers accuse the national railway company, RENFE, of failing to comply with a staffing agreement reached with unions last year.
During the strike, railway stations throughout the city have had transportation problems including trains being delayed and commuters stranded for long periods of time.
