Business secretary Grant Shapps has introduced a controversial new bill that would prevent some workers from being able to go on strike
The proposed law would mean areas including the NHS, education, fire and rescue, border security and nuclear decommissioning would have to introduce minimum levels of service during strikes to provide a ‘safety net’ to the public.
Mr Shapps told the Commons the Government "absolutely believes in the right to strike" but that it is "duty bound" to protect the lives and livelihoods of people in the UK. "The ambulance strike planned for tomorrow still does not have minimum safety levels in place and this will result in patchy emergency care for the British people, and this cannot continue.
Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner said one of her constituents “waited over an hour for an ambulance, who died waiting for an ambulance, and that was not on a strike day".
