Bus drivers call strike
London bus drivers have voted for strike action after a row over bonuses for working in this summer’s Olympics. No dates have been set for the strike yet.
A 40% turnout of Unite union members, who had been holding out for a £500 bonus, resulted in a 94% vote in favour of a strike.
The Conservative Party's Co-Chair Baroness Warsi responded to the news by claiming Unite leader Len McCluskey was 'clearly hell-bent on ruining the Olympics.'
She added: "Unite are Labour's biggest donor. Ed Miliband should put the national interest first and get them to call off this damaging and irresponsible strike."
