After a decade of this government freezing wages, wrecking the vital services we all depend on, and a cost-of-living crisis crippling household incomes - workers are taking action to demand better.
Instead of supporting workers, this government is attacking our right to strike to win pay rises.
Join us on Wed, 1st Feb as we rally to defend the right to strike and support striking workers.
