There are two ways of dealing with this wave of strikes.
- To sit down with the unions and listen to their genuine grievances then negotiate to find a way forward that addresses the problems these workers face.
- Ignore the problems altogether. Become belligerent and nasty. Treat the low-paid people like scum. Try to bring in legislation to crush the life out of them.
This government is made up of extreme right-wing Tories. They don’t give a toss about the plebs. They want them to work more for less to increase profits for their own.
They are happy to hand out billions to their chums to stash away in the Cayman Islands but not give £3000 to a nurse so she can eat and keep her kids warm.
Raging inequality, corruption and a decade or more of cuts and austerity (while giving handouts of millions to the rich) have created a perfect storm. Things are so bad. Pay is so low. People can no longer survive!
Chuck the bastards out!!
