Thousands of passengers arriving at airports in the UK are being warned they face disruption amid the start of Border Force strikes.
Royal Mail, National Highways and Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency employees are taking industrial action on Friday.
This follows two days of strikes by NHS staff, as thousands of nurses walked out on Tuesday, and ambulance workers joined picket lines on Wednesday. “We think that the action at the borders is going to be very effective. We hope that the Government will therefore do the right thing and get around the negotiating table and put some money upfront,” he told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme.
National Highways workers responsible for motorways and major A-roads in London and the South East, also represented by the PCS, will continue their four-day walkout which started on Thursday.
