The Guardian - New government aims for rapid resolution to dispute that has disrupted train services for more than two years. Talks between the train drivers' union Aslef and the Department for Transport (DfT) will take place next week as the new Labour government seeks a swift resolution to the long-running national pay dispute. Aslef's general secretary, Mick Whelan, said he believed fresh talks can and will get a deal, more than two years on from the start of a series of strikes by drivers that have halted train services around the country. .
