Threat of bank holiday strikes at eurotunnel

Strike action is being threatened at Eurotunnel over the bank holiday weekend in a row over pay.

French unions are demanding a sharp pay rise and may walk out at one of the busiest times of the year.

Eurotunnel has suspended bookings, but says it remains confident of being able to staff potentially all services should workers walk out.

A spokesman said: “We have been notified of possible strike action and are now taking all steps possible to mitigate any disruption should it go ahead.
