Tanker driver strike hits refinery

Tanker drivers at an oil refinery have begun a three-day walkout in a row over pensions and pay.

The strike, involving 42 Unite members at Grangemouth, near Falkirk, will run until Monday morning, with striking workers taking turns to man the picket lines.

The drivers, employed by BP, will then observe an overtime ban when they return to work on Monday.
