BIN strikes could spread across the country, a union leader warned today as industrial action in Birmingham continues.
More than 350 refuse workers have been on strike since March 11 over plans to cut a vital waste recycling role.
Unite says it will lead to 150 of its members having their pay slashed by up to £8,000 a year, and cited fears it could pave the way for wider cuts.
