That is abject nonsense I have seen very little evidence of people doing what they perceive the Government want. If they did these damned strikes wouldn't be happening would they?
If the Tories thought they could get away with it, I’m sure they would ban strikes completely, ban collective bargaining and probably ban unions completely. If the Government didn’t want the rise of the ‘gig’ economy and casualisation of work to expand they would have legislated against it. Not just done the Taylor review and made piecemeal responses to it.
