  • Employees of BBC, consisting of the National Union of Journalists (NUJ), began the second day of strikes against the schema changes to pension benefits.
    According to the staff union, the strike, which began at midnight on Friday, producing tangible results.
    Today Programme of Radio 4 has been canceled, but the news at 18:00 and at 22:00 have been aired in full.
    NUJ, numbering in their ranks 4,100 employees BBC, rejected the "final offer" leadership Broadcasting Corporation about the pension scheme, which voted in support of other unions.
    Another 48-hour strike is planned for November 15 and 16.

    Nationals of the UK are paying a special fee in the budget, which means there is a corporation. The right to strike in Britain denied only policemen who are not allowed even to join a union.
    As reported in October, BBC has agreed to the 340 millionth reduction in the budget, which amounts to a tenth of the annual fee for a TV license, which is taxed at home in the UK.
