LONDON, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Four hundred workers at the BVT Surface Fleet shipyard in Portsmouth, southern England, voted to strike over a planned change in working conditions that could lead to them working away from home for up to three months.
The GMB union said on Wednesday that 82 percent of its members at the site had voted in favour of strike action.
