Martin Lewis’ Money Saving expert team issues passport warning to holidaymakers ahead of April strikes

Martin Lewis’ Money Saving expert team has issued a warning to holidaymakers travelling abroad ahead of the passport strikes. More than one thousand Passport Office workers are due to walk out between 3 April and 5 as part of strike action over pay, pensions, redundancy terms and job security.

But the Money Saving Expert team has issued advice to British tourists who might be impacted if they are waiting for a new passport to arrive ahead of a holiday. The Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS), which represents government and civil service workers, has warned there could be a ‘significant impact’ on the delivery of passports throughout strike action.
