Amazon workers vote to strike at Coventry warehouse in UK first
Amazon workers at a depot in Coventry will go on strike over pay in the new year after voting in favour of industrial action in a historic ballot.
Members of the GMB union voted 98% in favour of a strike as they push for the online giant to hike their pay to £15 an hour.
GMB members had held a similar ballot earlier this year but missed the 50% turnout threshold required. They opted to hold a second vote, which this time achieved a 63% turnout.
