Passport Office workers are striking today.

When was the last time you heard of private sector workers striking? Or possibly even rarer, private sector workers striking in a business that was not previously under public ownership?

When was the last time you heard a Tory politician say a strike was justified ?

You are of course correct

My point is that you very rarely hear of strikes in the private sector.
