Journalists in South London, represented by the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) have embarked on a twelve day strike over low pay and bad working conditions at Newsquest.

NUJ members voted in favour of strike action over pay, staffing and redundancies. The journalists are demanding a living wage, no compulsory redundancies and appropriate staffing levels.
