Once again it appears that a dispute with Biffa is going to get messy, says GMB 

Terence Herbert, Wiltshire’s Town Clerk, has agreed to attend a meeting with GMB next week, despite writing to the union to say that ‘averting industrial action is not the driver’…

This matter must be resolved prior to Christmas, or we have no choice other than to issue strike notices for mid-January, says GMB union 

Many Christmas shoppers will choose to park for free, knowing there will be little or no parking enforcement during strike days, says GMB

GMB union members working for Biffa will halt kerbside collections within Godalming, Farnham, Haslemere, Cranleigh and the surrounding areas

We can’t ignore our members’ clear instruction to either negotiate a deal which recognises their own true worth or organise for industrial action, says GMB union

Residents and businesses within the borough will have their kerbside collections stopped for three weeks from Thursday 3 November

Three week strike ends after one day as Serco table improved pay offer to GMB members 

Kerbside collections across the borough will be suspended for three weeks from this morning

Members are scandalised that Wiltshire Council’s top bosses have walked back from a deal, says GMB
