The TUC says industrial action could spread into next year unless the government enters negotiations.
Strikes could continue into 2023 unless the government enters talks with unions over wages, the TUC head has warned.There has been widespread industrial action across the public and private sectors as living costs have soared.
Meanwhile, train and postal services have been disrupted as rail workers and Royal Mail staff walked out in rows over pay and conditions. "We have been reasonable in our approach to agreeing to the independent pay review bodies' recommendations for public sector pay rises," a government spokesperson said.
Driving examiners who are PCS members are also on strike until 31 December in a row over pay, pensions and redundancy terms, and action will continue throughout January.
