Striking Beer Delivery Driver Could Run Pubs Dry in The UK

From This is Derbyshire:

Unite union members at Kuehne and Nagel Drinks Logistics were due to walk out for 24 hours from 10am, followed by an overtime ban. 

Unite said almost 30,000 establishments across the UK would face “significant disruption” – including dozens of Derbyshire pubs. 

The action is set to hit deliveries of Foster’s, Heineken and Kronenbourg lagers, John Smith’s bitter, Strongbow cider and Britvic soft drinks. 

The union said that it balloted 970 employees of Kuehne and Nagel, with 85% voting in favour of strike action on a turnout of 64%.

They include staff at the firm’s Newark depot, which supplies many pubs in Derbyshire.
