Transport strike paralyses Berlin

Berlin’s underground, tram and bus network ground to a halt on Saturday as public transport workers went on strike for higher wages. “The strikes on Saturday are just a light warning” said Andreas Splanemann, spokesman for services union Verdi. He added that if their demand for a wage matching inflation rates was not met, the situation would escalate.
