New anti-strikes laws passed through the Commons this week with minimum disruption.
The Strikes (Minimum Services Levels) Bill cleared its first hurdle in a late-night Monday sitting, with MPs voting 315 to 246, majority 69.
The controversial proposals aim to ensure there are minimum working standards during strike days across six sectors, including health and transport.
Conservative sacking nurses Bill
Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner branded the Bill the “Conservative sacking nurses Bill” and said Labour would repeal it if the party was elected to power.
She added: “It threatens key workers with the sack during a workers shortage and crisis, mounts an outright assault on the fundamental freedom of working people, while doing absolutely nothing to resolve the crisis at hand.
“Let’s look at what this is really all about: a Government that is playing politics with key workers’ lives because they can’t stomach negotiation, a Government that is lashing out at working people instead of dealing with its 13 years of failure, and a Government and Prime Minister dangerously out of his depth and running scared of scrutiny.
“We on these benches will vote against this shoddy, unworkable Bill.”
Business Secretary Mr Shapps claimed the Bill was “simply proposing to protect people’s lives and to protect people’s livelihoods”.
