The first ever strike by workers at Tetley's has sparked fears of a tea shortage. Almost 150 GMB members working at Tata Consumer Products, which makes Tetley Tea in Teesside, voted to walk out in anger at 'poverty pay'.
This loyal, predominately female workforce has endured year after year of real terms pay cuts. Now they have had enough.
GMB members are being intimidated by management not to go on strike - they are trying to bully workers rather than listen to their concerns and try to find a solution.
Tata bosses need to get back round the table, or we face a shortage of the UK's favourite cup of tea this autumn.
