Keith Allen has announced a live show in support of refuse workers in Leeds who are currently on strike over proposed pay cuts.

The actor and singer, who is the father of Lily Allen, is expected to perform at the city's O2 Academy with his 12-piece band on October 18.

Union leaders have claimed that council refuse workers stand to face pay cuts of up to £6,000 under the proposed new contracts.

However, councillor Richard Brett criticised the figure as "misleading", insisting that salaries would be unaffected for another 18 months due to pay protection.
