Liverpool John Lennon Airport will not be affected by Christmas strikes

Liverpool John Lennon Airport will not be affected by a strike by Border Force staff over Christmas.

Around 1,000 Border Force workers will strike for eight days from December 23. The Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS) announced that workers at several airports across the UK will walk out over pay, jobs and conditions.

PCS general secretary Mark Serwotka said the staff work at passport control so the strike will have a “significant impact”. Mr Serwotka also warned the Government against bringing in the military to cover for the strikes, saying there was not enough time to train them properly.
