Victoria Square is set to be the centre of a rally in Birmingham City Centre at midday on Monday (23).

The dispute is an ongoing issue with Birmingham City Council in a dispute over equal pay.

Alice Reynolds, GMB organiser, said: "These workers have been pushed to the brink. Workers across the city are feeling the pinch, unable to pay their bills, rents and mortgages.

"Meanwhile, Birmingham City Council continue to drag their heels on paying them the money they're owed. This strike will have a huge impact on local schools; partial or full closures could be on the horizon. We need to see progress on settling our members' claims from council bosses, and soon."
