Members of the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) at BBC workplaces across the country struck on Monday 18 February.

The NUJ is fighting the BBC’s “Delivering Quality First” cuts programme, which will involve 2,000 job losses, including 30 compulsory redundancies, over five years.

NUJ general secretary Michelle Stanistreet said: “The BBC is prepared to waste public money on needless redundancies rather than secure redeployment opportunities for those at risk.”

Union members will also take part in a work-to-rule campaign from Friday 15 February.
