Workers at the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE), the UK’s nuclear weaponsmanufacturer, are to strike after two months of other forms of industrial action in a dispute over pay, their union has announced.

Members of Prospect at the Berkshire-based company will walk out for 24 hours on Wednesday January 24.

Action short of a strike started in mid-November and will continue until the strike action is taken and will re-commence on Thursday January 25.
