British Dock Workers Move to Partial Return to Work
British dockers vote to resume operations partially by Monday, breaking the three week shutdown. Union leaders report mixed acceptance of terms on job security and severance pay, with London, Liverpool, and Manchester remaining out or undecided. About 6,000 in Liverpool and 1,100 in Manchester vote to stay out. London’s 14,000 expected to extend. Settlement would add inland container depot jobs and raise severance pay, but critics say it costs thousands of dock jobs. The broader effect on trade and inflation remains negative, with supply strains easing only slightly if the walkouts persist.
