Travellers have been urged to rethink Christmas travel plans amid widespread strikes, as Mick Lynch accused the government of sabotaging talks
Home Secretary Suella Braverman has urged people planning to fly over Christmas to rethink their plans because of the "undeniable, serious disruption" caused by striking airport workers.Border Force workers are set to walk out on eight dates from December 23 to 31 over a pay dispute, with reports that 30% of flights could be axed.
She told broadcasters: "If they go ahead with those strikes there will be undeniable, serious disruption caused to many thousands of people who have holiday plans. "We've got plans in place that will involve, to a degree, bringing in some of our military colleagues to help us in a variety of roles.Up to 30% of flights could be cut."That may well have an adverse impact on convenience for people, frankly, whether it's the time they have to wait for flights, or departures, they may well be delayed on arrivals and various travel plans. Ultimately security at the border is my number one non-negotiable priority.
