Day of action planned as public sector workers strike

Rugby Editorial 9th Jul, 2014 Updated: 27th Oct, 2016   0

A DAY of strike action among public sector workers takes place on Thursday.

Teachers, firefighters and council workers have stepped up their disputes with the Government over changes to their pay and pensions.

Schools were expected to be the most affected although as of Wednesday just five in Rugby had declared full or partial closure while bins due to be emptied today will now be done on Saturday, the council has said.

Firefighters have also confirmed they will walk out every day next week for two hours in the morning and two hours in evening.
