Boris Johnson faces the threat of a national public sector strike over plans to axe tens of thousands of civil service jobs.
The Prime Minister put himself on a collision course with trade unions after it was revealed he has tasked his Cabinet with cutting about 90,000 jobs.
Unions reacted with fury after Johnson told ministers on Thursday that the public sector jobs should be slashed by a fifth with one leader warning that national strike action was “very much on the table”.
