"Hundreds of Deliveroo riders are expected to go on strike on Wednesday as they call for higher pay""Deliveroo said it was organised by a small "union [that] does not represent the vast majority of riders".

I saw them, about 30. Probably a part of their strike.

I wondered if it was something to do with the bus drivers strike? Last week they were flapping red flags outside cars - so very simply thought red = bus = strike? Maybe not. It happened last Wednesday too.
