Liverpool dock workers to launch two-week strike in dispute over pay
HUNDREDS of dock workers, members of Unite at the Port of Liverpool, are set to launch a two-week strike tonight in a dispute over pay.
The Peel Ports Group, which operates the port, said workers had rejected an offer of an 8.3 per cent pay rise, enhanced with a one-off payment of £750.
Unite say it is a real-terms pay cut because of the soaring rate of inflation and argue that the port’s owners can afford a higher increase.
