UK Border Force staff plan to go on strike at airports across the country during the busy Christmas period in a dispute over pay, one of the United Kingdom’s biggest trade unions said, as it warned that travellers will face severe disruptions.
Border Force workers at several major British airports – including the country’s busiest, London’s Heathrow – will walk off the job for eight days, from December 23 to 31, the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union said on Wednesday.
The strikes are part of spiralling instances of industrial action by railway workers, nurses, ambulance drivers and teachers.

Wages wouldn’t be an issue if worthless and corrupt politicians weren’t stealing a third to a half of your money through taxes. The problem is they are. About time people wake the f up!
Britain is collapsing
I just wonder, why those politicians choose to argue each other and not make decision that help their people. Such as give stimulus so people can put food in the table, make regulation so house price not getting up more, push the companies and unions to sit together and make fast agreement so workers can benefit faster.
What goes around comes around, there must be a God. UK has orchestrated many stricks, coups, revolutions, uprising to toppled governments around the world. It’s now coming home to haunt UK. Happy 😊😊
