Workers at the UK plant that brews Budweiser, Stella Artois, Becks, Boddingtons and Export Pale Ale have gone on strike again after talks collapsed, according to the union. Staff at the beer giant’s Samlesbury site will now strike until 7am on October 22 over what they are calling a real-terms pay cut.
Meetings between GMB, Budweiser and conciliation service ACAS collapsed last week after bosses upped their offer by £250 for 2023.
Stephen Boden, GMB Organiser, said: ‘’We don’t believe there is any real desire from Budweiser to resolve this dispute. The work force is losing confidence in the management team.
