PCS members to join biggest day of walkouts in over a decade​


PCS members across the civil service will join hundreds of thousands of trade union members on strike on 1 February in the biggest walkout for over a decade after we served notice on 123 employers.

We have served notice on employers where members in the civil service and related areas have passed the 50% legal threshold for strike action. 100,000 PCS members will strike for 24 hours on the same day as 300,000 NEU members in England and Wales, affecting more than 23,000 schools. Members of train drivers’ union Aslef are also set to strike across 14 companies on 1 February.
Our day of action will be the largest civil service strike for years and signals a significant escalation of industrial action after a month of strikes over pay, pensions, redundancy terms and job security. It also coincides with the TUC's 'protect the right to strike' day.
 
Why is everyone going on strike
Tories boasting Growth Up, Employment Up.

Gaslighting on the grandest of scales. They still take the UK electorate for the fools that trusted them on brexit.

Self serving scum.

Environment Agency workers to strike for the first time over pay, says UNISON​

Thousands of Environment Agency workers in England will strike for the first time later this month in a significant escalation of their dispute over pay, says UNISON today (Thursday).


Workers who maintain important safety structures such as the Thames Barrier, coastal sea defences and those protecting communities from floods, water pollution, spills, waste fires and fly-tipping will walk out on Wednesday 18 January from 8am to 5pm. The strike comes at a time of year when extreme weather is more likely to hit the country, warns UNISON.

Archived Petition: Sack public service workers who go on strike

Millions of people are out of work so if public sector workers go on strike they should be sacked and their jobs given to people who need the work. To have public sector workers going on strike because they are not happy about the fact that they get better pensions than the rest of the working...

Thankfully this petition only received 12 signatures but shows the mentality of the tories.

France strikes: fears of violence over plan to raise retirement age

France faces what is expected to be its worst disruption for years tomorrow with national strikes and street protests aimed at killing off President Macron’s deeply unpopular attempt to raise the retirement age

Raising the retirement age to 64… just imagine if anywhere tried to raise it to 68!
 
It’s about doing what’s right, these people are important, they keep the country going, they deserve to be able to have a quality of life.
