The ConDem government's planned new laws were laid out today at the Queen's speech.
RMT General Secretary Bob Crow said:
“This mangled set of measures contains further attacks on workplace health and safety and workers protection through the employment tribunals. One again, this rotten Government has loaded the dice in favour of bad bosses and against workers who all already taking the full force of austerity smack in the face."
“The truth is that this remains a government of the rich, by the rich, for the rich and while young people are denied jobs and apprenticeships the gap between the wealthy and the poor continues to widen and this Queen’s Speech fails to lift a finger to tackle that growing inequality."
“But there is a fight back and thousands will join the People’s Assembly at the end of June just days before the Government fleshes out the full gory details of the next phase of cuts in the spending review. Away from the fancy dress costumes and the gilded carriages a real resistance is growing by the day.”
