Magnificent turn-out on 30 November
Pay more, work longer, for a smaller pension – that's what the government is asking of public sector workers. And Prospect members made it clear they are not willing to do that by coming out on to picket lines all over the UK on 30 November and joining TUC rallies.
The leaders of Prospect's civil service sector, president John Streeter and Prospect deputy general secretary Dai Hudd, paid tribute to the hard work of all those who supported the strike.
Strike action by at least 26,000 Prospect members interrupted, delayed or stopped work at more than 400 locations ranging from Plymouth to Aberdeen, from Lowestoft to Carlisle. Picket lines across the country relayed that more than 80% of specialists and professionals represented by Prospect stayed away from work in the nationwide day of action.
See reports from picket lines and rallies and also a selection of photos taken by members and reps.
