Sharon Graham said a million people could be striking this winter, including doctors and nurses, as she said the Conservative government is helping bosses pocket massive profits while workers are not benefitting.
"There will be multiple strikes and I know in my own union there have been 450 strikes in less than a year, 90,000 Unite members have been out on strike, £200m has been won back in the pockets of those workers.
"That is the job of trade unions, that's what we should be doing and that's what we're doing more and more of, so I can see that that will escalate."Many of Unite's members work for the NHS and Ms Graham said doctors and nurses going on strike is"a very real option that is now being looked at"., who faced multiple NHS strikes when he was health secretary under David Cameron and Theresa May over junior doctor contracts.
