Strikes Bill

On Monday 16 January I questioned the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy about the Government’s plans to revert to authoritarian, far right, out of touch laws with the proposal of the Strike Bill.
Peter Dowd MP:

“As far as I can tell, the Government have ruled out voluntary options 1 and 2 in their assessment, on the basis that they will be ineffective, particularly where unions and employers have major disagreements. The question is: why and how have the Government arrived at that decision now, in advance of the legislation itself?“
