Until one hour ago, staff at the British Museum were not on strike because they were not members of the PCS union.

In the last hour, most of them have now joined, and they have walked out.

@jdpoc It’s almost as if this Conservative party have single-handedly resurrected the need for Trade unions. People aren’t buying the workers are lazy drivel which is pumped out nonstop by our billionaire non Dom press. Nor do they believe that strikes are intrinsically evil. They recognise that people are on their knees and most have an uneasy feeling that Brexit may be behind a lot of the inflation and certainly behind deregulation that’s making our lives so much more dangerous.
