Quick thread on industrial action & the call for a #GeneralStrike to try & set out the limits of this & what might work better

when workers go on strike they are usually in breach of their contract of employment/contract for services But there are specific statutory immunities that mean workers can take industrial action without being sued for breach of contract and other stuff. Because this is 🇬🇧, these statutory immunities have restrictions around how ballots etc must be conducted, notice to employers etc
