Welsh farm workers set to strike to win same pay as English colleagues

DOZENS of agricultural feed workers in Carmarthen are set to strike for two days this week in a bid to win the same pay as their colleagues in England.

GMB organiser Peter Hill said: “It can’t be right that our members in Wales undertaking exactly the same job are paid significantly less than their counterparts across regions in England.
