Border Force staff at Heathrow and Gatwick are going on strike for eight days over Christmas.
Staff at the Rural Payments Agency, which deals with farmers, are also joining the industrial action."We will deploy suitable resource to meet critical demand and support the flow of passengers and goods through our border."
"The Home Office advises that immigration and customs checks may take longer during peak times on strike days, and Heathrow will support Border Force to minimise these impacts with the aim of processing passengers through the border as efficiently as possible. A spokesperson for Gatwick said the airport was "disappointed" that Border Force staff had decided to take strike action and hoped that a settlement could be found "as quickly as possible".
