Our predecessors fought for the right to strike. Last night MPs removed it.

Rishi Sunak misled Parliament in his attack on the right to fair pay and strike today. So has Grant Shapps.
Sunak said at #PMQs that "the @ILO@twitter.com supports minimum service levels... they're present in France, in Italy, in Spain".
This is false - and they should correct it. 1/🧵

How many A&E patients wait more than 12 hours between a decision to admit them to hospital and actually being admitted?
In August 2010, England's NHS recorded one case of this. Not 100, not 1,000. Just one.
In December 2022, it was 54,532.
