(Reuters) – Hundreds of dockworkers at the port of Liverpool have launched a two-week strike due to a dispute over pay, the Unite trade union said on Tuesday. More than 560 port operatives and maintenance engineers employed by Mersey Docks and Harbour Company (MDHC) are striking over a pay offer equating to about 8.3 percent. Peel Ports Group, which owns MDHC, said that all other Liverpool operations are unaffected by the strike. ($1 = 0.8802 pounds) (Reporting by Akriti Sharma in Bengaluru)
