20 hours agoUnion fined 265,000 for blocking lorries in Birmingham bin workers' strike
Justice Jefford found that Unite had repeatedly breached the injunction issued in July by blockading and slow walking next to vehicles. The judgment, issued in the high court on Tuesday, said such action had contributed to 22,000 tonnes of uncollected rubbish accumulating in Birmingham in March last year, which led the council to declare a major incident.
