Protect the Right to Strike

Why should you get involved?

We know that the public thinks the right to strike is important – and should be protected. All of us can raise the alarm about the threat to the right to strike. And together we can make the government rethink their plans and protect the right to strike.

Join the national march and rally, Sunday 4 October 2015

As Conservative Party Conference meets in Manchester this year, thousands of trade union members and supporters will march through the city, taking a clear message to the Conservative Party about their Government's damaging programme of austerity and their attacks on the rights of working people and their unions.

Pledge to march with us and we'll keep you informed with the latest news about the event and campaign.

Lobby and rally, London Monday 2 November 2015

Join the TUC and union members from all over the country coming together to lobby and rally against the trade union bill on Monday 2 November in London. More information to come soon.

Sign petition: Don’t let employers use agency temps to break strikes

Business Secretary Sajid Javid is seeking to overturn a long-running ban on employers using agency workers to break strikes, alongside other restrictive measures in the Government’s new trade union bill. The new measures will make the fundamental right to strike almost meaningless.

We’re campaigning against this damaging change and other equally harmful measures in the trade union bill. We’re starting with a petition to show Sajid Javid that people can see the dangers in his plans. Please join us and help make this as big as we can, to protect the fundamental right to strike for all UK workers.
