A Cardiff pub manager has warned that pubs could run out of beer during Wales' rugby autumn internationals as delivery strikes look set to cause disruption. Nick Newman of Creoeso Pub group which runs some of the city's most popular bars including Retro, The Philharmonic and Brewhouse, said businesses "could run dry".
Nick who is also the manager of the Blue Bell pub on High Street in the city said told BBC Radio Wales Driver that the five day industrial action would be "tremendously disruptive". Drivers at GXO go on strike between 31 October and 4 November, with Wales facing New Zealand the following day.
GXO delivers around 40% of the UK's beer supplies. Speaking to the BBC Nick said: "There's no question about it, it's just a question of logistics - for the rugby kick off on the Saturday lots of businesses could run dry."
