Royal Mail workers have walked out on strike for a second day as part of a a bitter dispute over pay, with further industrial action planned. Members of the Communication Workers Union mounted picket lines outside Royal Mail offices across the country on Wednesday.
The union said more than 100,000 workers are involved, making it the biggest strike of the summer. The action follows a walkout last week and there will be further stoppages on Thursday, September 8 and Friday, September 9.
The action is in protest at a 2 per cent pay rise, although the company has said more money is on offer.
