Strike continues at UK's biggest container port
A second day of strike action is under way at the UK's busiest container port after workers walked out on Sunday in a pay dispute.
The union Unite said about 1,900 of its members were taking action, expected to last eight days, at the Port of Felixstowe in Suffolk.
A 7% pay offer from the port operator was described as "significantly below" the rate of inflation by Unite.
The decision to strike was described by the port as "disappointing".
A picket line formed for a second time on Monday, with the union saying it would be staffed until 22:00 BST each day of the strike.
