The Labour government is set to repeal the Trade Union Act, removing thresholds for strike action, promoting a 'new era of partnership' between unions and employers.
When the Trade Union Act was introduced, it was designed to ensure that strike action had a clear democratic mandate. Now, Labour criticizes it as an attack on workers' rights.
Labour argues that the current government is too beholden to union paymasters and plans to overhaul the old regime, fostering cooperation rather than disruption in industrial relations.
The government's intention to scrap the Act aims to align the UK with high-growth economies, reflecting a shift towards enhancing workers' rights and partnerships.
