Title: British Embassy not paying enough of the queen's shilling
Post by: Jim_Murphy_74 on January 23, 2008, 01:51:54 PM
QuoteStaff at the British Embassy in Dublin have voted to mount strike action in a dispute over job cuts.

The workers, members of the Unite trade union, have voted overwhelmingly in favour of industrial action.

Up to 45 staff have been in dispute with the embassy since three workers were told earlier this month that they were being laid off.

They are now due to mount a one-day strike at the embassy on February 7.

There is quite a history of mounting strikes at the British embassy.

Has terrorism been ruled out?
