Protect the right to strike! What we do next - TUC Organising Call and date for National Day of Action
On Monday thousands of trade unionists and workers descended on the UK Parliament to protest the Conservative Government's draconian new anti-strike Bill and send a clear message to the Government that we will relentlessly fight this fundamental attack on our democratic and human rights to withdraw our labour.
I would like to thank each and every one of you that turned out for the Emergency Demo and for the continued support of those that couldn't make it.
I wanted to share some next steps for us to take over the coming days and weeks to continue to fight the anti-strike bill
