Fears have been raised Brits could see empty shelves in the coming days as nearly 2,000 workers at the UK’s biggest container port started their strike action.
The Unite workers at Felixstowe, including crane drivers and stevedores, have walked out for eight days in a dispute over pay - the port’s first industrial action since 1989.
Felixstowe is the UK’s largest container port, with nearly half of the country’s containers arriving in Suffolk.
