Key workers were there for us when we needed them most.
Now @RishiSunak is threatening them with the sack.
Tonight, I’ll be voting against this attack on the fundamental rights of working people.

At Downing Street tonight at the @eiecampaign rally against the Tory anti-strike bill then heading to Westminster later to vote against it in the Commons.
The right to strike is fundamental and workers must be protected.
