GB News presenter Andrew Pierce has been left fuming after a heated discussion with Trades Union Congress assistant general secretary, Kate Bell, over strike action on the London Underground.

Andrew branded the union's demands as "outrageous", particularly given the severe consequences for vulnerable Londoners requiring medical care.

Part of the strikers' demands include access to a travel card, which also gives its holder ticket deals at Legoland, Thorpe Park and Chessington World of Adventures.

Speaking about the demands on GB News today, Andrew said: "I appreciate negotiation is all part of it, Kate, but do you go along with the RMT wanting two-for-one entry to theme parks, including Legoland? These are some of the demands being made by RMT staff.

Andrew fumed that the strikes are 'just outrageous'

"They want access to a Travelcard that gives them two-for-one tickets for places like Legoland, Thorpe Park and Chessington. Meanwhile, people are struggling to get to work. People have had cancer appointments cancelled because they can’t get there due to the Tube strikes.

"They won’t feel much sympathy if staff are demanding free tickets to Legoland.”

However, Ms Bell responded: "Look, Andrew, as I said, I’m not negotiating on behalf of the RMT that’s the job of those workers and their representatives."

Andrew interjected: "That is outrageous, isn't it? Just outrageous."

She responded: "But workers do have the right to discussions about their jobs, their pay and their conditions.

"And that’s exactly what we’re arguing for, not just for Tube workers, but for shop workers, health workers, refuse workers workers right across the country.

"That’s why getting the Employment Rights Bill passed in full is so important. Because right now, four million people are in insecure work.

"That’s the real national scandal, after a decade of inaction on jobs, terms and conditions.

"That’s what we want to be tackling today, and that’s what we’re discussing at our conference this week.”

The capital's transport system has ground to a halt as RMT members began their industrial action on September 7, with the walkout scheduled to continue until September 12.

The underground network has been shut down completely for four consecutive days starting Monday, leaving no services operating before 8am throughout the strike period.

Transport for London confirmed that the entire underground system would experience severe disruption, with minimal or no services available from Monday through Thursday.

The Docklands Light Railway faces separate walkouts on Tuesday and Thursday due to an independent dispute. The industrial action resulted from failed discussions between union representatives and transport authorities regarding salary increases and demands for reduced working hours.

Union officials claimed that management displayed a dismissive attitude during negotiations, prompting overwhelming support for strike action amongst their membership.
