| − | In December 2009, after standards on [[Virgin West Coast]] trains were criticised following two strikes by cleaners, it was found that cleaning activity had been outsourced via main contractor [[Alstom]] to Carlisle. Further investigation showed that cleaners were paid UK [[National minimum wage]] levels of £5.80/hr. Commenting on the strike, RMT union leader [[Bob Crow]] said:<ref>{{citeweb|url=http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/columnists/maguire/2009/12/02/lord-ashcroft-s-poverty-pay-to-train-workers-115875-21865663/|title=Lord Ashcroft's poverty pay to train workers|author=Kevin Maguire|publihsre=Daily Mirror|date=2009-12-02|accessdate=2009-12-18}}</ref> |
