Rishi Sunak has just detailed his anti-union legislation and plans to introduce new laws in the coming weeks.
It means that when workers democratically vote to strike, they could be forced to work and sacked if they don’t. That’s wrong, unworkable, and almost certainly illegal.
These new laws are a direct attack on working people’s fundamental right to strike to defend their pay, terms and conditions.

These new laws are a direct attack on working people’s fundamental right to strike to defend their pay, terms and conditions.
This government has gone from clapping key workers to threatening them with the sack if they take lawful action for a pay rise.
Instead of listening to the concerns of working people and negotiating fair deals, Rishi Sunak has decided to undermine the right to strike.
Every working person is under attack from these new laws.

MPs will be voting on these new laws in the coming weeks, and we know that many are undecided about whether they will support these laws or not. In fact, some Tory MPs are beginning to waver and have started to voice concerns about the Bill.
We need to reach MPs urgently to ensure they act to defend the right to strike. And the people they’re most likely to listen to are their own constituents.
Whichever party your MP is in, you have a part to play:
If your MP is a Conservative: use this form to request a meeting with them.
If your MP is NOT a Conservative: use this form to encourage them to publicly support the right to strike.
