ONLY one political party is confirmed to be showing solidarity with the tens of thousands of civil servants taking industrial action today – which includes parliamentary staff.
Some 100,000 members of the Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS) across 123 employers will be taking part in the nationwide strikes. This will impact government ministries, museums, driving test centres, ports and airports.
The industrial action will coincide with UK-wide “right to strike” rallies in response to the UK Government’s anti-strike bill. The action is thought to be the biggest day of coordinated strikes for over a decade.
