Train drivers using incontinence products due to lack of breaks, says union boss

Tena products' being deployed as Covid is used as excuse to decimate' conditions, select committee told

Union bosses have accused the government and rail firms of exploiting the pandemic to force through changes to conditions, with one claiming that drivers were so short of breaks they had to rely on incontinence products.

In evidence to MPs on Wednesday, they also accused the government of meddling in negotiations over pay, despite ministers' insistence that they were not involved.
