[An eight-day strike at the UK's biggest container port
will go ahead after talks between bosses
and unions broke down.
More than 1,900 members of Unite will
strike from Sunday 21 August until
Monday 29 August, unhappy with
the 7% pay rise offered by Felixstowe Dock
and Railway Company following a
1.4% increase last year.]
["During talks yesterday the port further
improved its position,
offering a £500 lump sum in addition to 7%.]
£500 Lump sum
and 7% seems a good offer.
