With disruptions continuing throughout the busy Christmas period, we've had a look at who might be next to announce a strike, with Santa Claus 150/1.
It's fair to say Southern Rail haven't made themselves particularly popular over the festive period. There's been continued misery for London and the south-east's commuters over the last week, with no end in sight to the row over train guards. Some Twitter users even suggested finding some unconventional alternative methods of transport to make it into work.

With another planned strike taking place on Friday as well as more to come, we've had a look at which worker group will be the next to announce a strike in the UK.
With a proven track record of striking, it is doctors that are the front-runners at 11/10, following their walk out earlier this year. They also cancelled further strikes later in the year, over concerns about patient safety.
At 7/2, bus drivers are a strong fancy to follow in the tracks of Aslef and RMT unions, having also staged strikes earlier this year. If you fancy either the police force or fire brigade to strike then you can get 4/1 and 5/1 respectively.
Elsewhere, actors are 25/1 and footballers 100/1, with some in the industry complaining about the busy Christmas schedule and having to train during that period.
With the busy Christmas period just around the corner the big man, Santa Claus, is the outsider at 150/1, which is actually more likely than Kanye West to become President in 2020. He's possibly fed up of travelling around the world in one night with only a wooden sleigh to carry him. A diet of solely mince pies and milk also may not be enough sustenance for him anymore.
