FREIGHTLINER port staff and drivers at Southampton docks have voted by four to one to strike in a dispute over pay and conditions.
The RMT union said it balloted workers, including those at Felixstowe, because the company tried to "divide, intimidate and victimise" rather than negotiate with its 40 Southampton members.
The union has given the company until Wednesday to negotiate a deal or face action that "could bring operations to a standstill".
