Airport baggage handler strike gets go-ahead

Baggage handlers at Belfast International Airport will take strike action next week in a bid to secure union recognition.    

Swissport workers at Aldergrove are to strike following a 94% vote for industrial action in a recent ballot conducted by trade union Unite.

The strike will take place on Monday, September 8, between 04h00 and 08h00.
    
Meanwhile, Ulsterbus and Metro bus drivers are to be balloted over plans to take strike as Translink's offer of a 1% pay increase has been withdrawn because of cuts to public transport funding.
