Well, this is fucking bullshit. Firstly, on a personal level, if this legislation was enacted, it would push me over the edge into quitting teaching and I wouldn’t be the only one. It would also probably take away the right to strike in small primary schools, which is again fucking bullshit, but would also affect their recruitment.
Secondly, if it does go through, anyone asked to work during a strike should simply phone in sick the day of the strike. Fuck them- they can’t actually make you work.
Anyway, we have to fucking fight this. There is a labour shortage in the UK. Let’s show Sunak where power really lies.
Maybe I’ll share more coherent support later but fuck Sunak.
