The biggest rail strike in 30 years, which starts on Tuesday, leads nearly all the front pages.

This week's rail strike dominates almost all of Monday's front pages. "Network derailed" is the Metro's headline as it says Britain's biggest rail strike in more than 30 years will see just one in five services running.The Times says teachers and doctors are threatening to walk out alongside rail workers if the government fails to meet their demands for a pay rise.

The paper says Grant Shapps has written a hard-hitting letter to the Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, saying it was staggering that he would not speak out against the strike.
