Dockers plan further strike action at the UK's busiest container port over a pay dispute.

The Port of Felixstowe said it had received notice from Unite the union, with workers due to walk out from 27 September until 5 October.

About 1,900 members of the union took industrial action there for eight days last month.

The company said there was no prospect of an agreement being reached. The BBC has contacted the union for comment.

In a letter to members seen by the BBC, the port said workers would get a 7% pay rise plus a bonus of £500.

Unite was asking for a pay rise that would better match the rate of inflation, which is currently at about 10%.
