BT strike warning grows | Potential internet blackout for up to 10m homeworkers

Telecommunications giant and internet provider BT is currently in the midst of an internal row over planned job cuts and site closures.

The Communication Workers Union, which is currently representing around 45,000 BT staff, warned that if a national strike were to take place, it could well leave over 10million home workers - figures from choose.co.uk - with no access to the internet, according to reports from The Guardian.
