Conservative Party’s ‘Strike Ban Act’ in Britain’s biggest strike, Labor Party’s ‘expanded support base’

100,000 nurses went on a one-day strike on the 15th, following the British railway post office worker strike, and the confrontation between the Conservative government and the Labor Party is repeating the Thatcherism crisis of 40 years ago.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said in an interview with the Conservative Daily Mail on the 15th that he plans to introduce a strike ban law next year. I really hope,” he said.
Prime Minister Sunak went on to say, “The government has made good-faith wage offers to workers in many sectors. He called the strike "the Labor Party's nightmare before Christmas," reenacting Thatcherism's rise to power in the Labor Party's chaos 40 years ago.
Labor leader Keir Starmer said: "After 12 years of Conservative failure, winter has come to our public service, and we have a prime minister who has gone into hibernation in a ball". He criticized the Conservative Prime Minister.
The New York Times said, “Polls show people continue to support striking workers who have faced years of low wage growth and the strains of the pandemic. While 30% disagreed. The nurses’ strike was reported on the 14th with 52% in favor and 38% against.
The Royal College of Nurses, which represents nurses in the UK, has demanded a 19 per cent pay rise, and the government has refused to negotiate, saying that a pay rise would divert money from other parts of the national health service and hurt hospital care backlogs.
The NYT said, "The hope of the British government is that public sentiment will turn against the unions, and when they do, the Labor Party will pay a political price, as it did in 1979." The same Conservative tabloids are pushing that support for the strike is waning, not only among the public, but among rank and file members of the trade unions.”
In Britain, two weeks before the end of the year, postal workers and railway workers went on strike scheduled for a month, leaving railway stations empty.
Up to 100,000 nurses are joining a one-day strike on the 15th that could delay treatment at hospitals and clinics across the UK.
In Britain, the strike extended to driving test examiners in the motor department, baggage handlers, bus drivers, road attendants and energy company employees.
Major British media outlets have posted color-coded 'strike calendars' to help readers keep track of which services will be shut down on which dates.
“Surging labor unrest has been compared to the original winter of discontent in 1978 and 1979, when public and private sector strikes crippled the country,” said the NYT London bureau chief. It solidified the feeling that the Labor Prime Minister at the time, James Callaghan, had lost control and ultimately overthrew his government,” he said. But this time their roles have changed.”
“The strength of trade unions in Britain, which has declined significantly since the 1970s, has also changed. But the political risk to Prime Minister Sunak's Conservative government remains serious. Critics seize the opportunity to blame him for a country that seems broken.”
"History is a really big warning sign for Prime Minister Sunak and the government," said Matthew Goodwin, a professor of political science at the University of Kent. is making things more complicated in this country," he told the NYT.
On the 13th, Mick Link, secretary-general of the Railroad, Maritime and Transport Workers Union, responded to a question from BBC host Mischal Hussain, “How much money is lost every day because union members refuse to go to work?” I am doing it,” he replied.
The Conservative Party argued that wage negotiations in the public sector should be entrusted to the “public sector worker wage decision review body,” while the Labor Party argued that the government should even allow direct negotiations with unions.
In the 1980s, hard-line conservative rheogenomics and the twin wagon of Thatcherism emerged as an attack that “the Labor government had lost control,” and during this year’s winter strike, Labor brought the same charges against the Conservatives.
