Up to 270,000 civil servants, including Jobcente staff, tax workrs and coastguards, are planning a two day strike in early March in a dispute over cuts to public sector redundancy terms. The Public and Commercial services union who represent the workers balloted the staff earlier this month and 64% voted for stoppages and 81% backing an overtime ban. The 2 day walkout could be followed by a series of rolling strikes through March and April, just weeks before the expected date of the general election.
