A union boss has blasted claims of a “general strike”, warning they do a “disservice to our unions and their members”.
TUC general secretary Paul Nowak, who represents 48 unions, told the Mirror : “Our members aren't interested in ‘the general strike’ or taking on the Government.
"Our members are interested in a decent pay rise; the Government, the employers treating them with respect, recognising that they've got genuine issues and problems.”
