Journalists at the Shropshire Star are considering a vote on industrial action, claiming many of their questions about job cuts have gone unanswered by management, the NUJ announced today.

The threat of a ballot on action was decided at a Shropshire Newspapers NUJ meeting on Wednesday night.

The decision was made due to what the union said was a lack of information given to employees over redundancies on the Shropshire Star and its associated weekly titles.
