Heathrow Airport's British Airways crew have voted in favour of going on strike amid rows over pay, it has been announced by the GMB and Unite Unions. Members of the airline based at Heathrow were balloted by the GMB trade union Thursday morning, June 23.
The union announced that 95 per cent of its workers had voted in favour of strike action this summer, which is likely to be held during the height of the summer holidays.
BA workers at Heathrow who are members of the Unite union have been balloted too, separately. Results from this were expected on Monday. Workers, including check-in staff, will now decide on strike dates, the Mirror reports.
