A SECOND day of strikes hit Britain’s busiest container port yesterday as dockers continued to demand an end to pay offers that are significantly below soaring inflation.

The eight-day walkout at the Port of Felixstowe in Suffolk will see daily picket lines staffed until 10pm, said Unite, which represents the workers. 

The industrial action, which saw about 1,900 crane drivers, machine operators, stevedores and other workers down tools for the first time on Sunday, was described by the port as disappointing.
