WORKERS at Liverpool’s John Lennon airport are set to strike over the August bank holiday weekend after rejecting a below-inflation 2 per cent pay rise.

A total of 80 workers in aviation rescue and firefighting services, the control room, engineering and driver operations and airport bird control will join the action after GMB members voted to strike.

They will stage a 36-hour walkout beginning at 7pm on Thursday August 23, followed by a further 12-hour strike beginning at 7am on Monday September 3.
