Airports strike begin in UK as Border Force staff walkout

order Force staff are the latest UK workers to take action as rises in the cost of living outpace pay.

The military and civil servants have been drafted in at six major airports and at Newhaven port.

About 1,000 Border Force workers, many of whom check people's passports as they arrive in the UK, will strike from 23 to 26 December, and 28 to 31 December
