Asda shoppers could be facing empty shelves in the coming weeks, if a strike threatened by the chain's distribution staff gets the green light.
Almost 70% of the grocery giant's 8,000 GMB union members working within its delivery network have voted against a pay offer of between five per cent and 7.5 per cent.
Asda's 23 distribution centres, which employ 12,000 people in total, would all be affected if the strike goes ahead, including the one on Pattinson Industrial Estate, Washington.
