近6 500名Met文职工作人员于11月5日超薪罢工,要求1 250英镑的伦敦津贴。 Nearly 6,500 Met civilian staff to strike Nov. 5 over pay, demanding £1,250 London allowance.

将近6 500名市警察文职人员,包括999名呼叫处理人员和支助人员,定于11月5日(Bonfire night)因薪酬纠纷举行罢工。 Nearly 6,500 Metropolitan Police civilian staff, including 999 call handlers and support officers, are set to strike on November 5, Bonfire Night, over a pay dispute. 公共和商业服务联盟正在要求伦敦1 250英镑的津贴,警官领取,但文职人员不领取。 The Public and Commercial Services union (PCS) is demanding a £1,250 London allowance, which police officers receive but civilian staff do not. 工会认为,在生活费用不断上涨的情况下,薪酬差距是不公平的,而Met指出,预算短缺达2.6亿英镑,并说它提出了一个合理的替代方案。 The union argues the pay gap is unfair amid rising living costs, while the Met cites a £260 million budget shortfall and says it has made a reasonable alternative offer. 罢工可能扰乱紧急服务,并迫使重新部署军官,从而增加费用。 The strike could disrupt emergency services and force redeployment of officers, increasing costs. 争议仍未解决。 The dispute remains unresolved.
