Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Kate Green and Theresa Villiers

Thursday 23rd June 2011 Commons Chamber

With regard to changing strike law, the Government are not rushing to any kind of confrontation with the unions, but Mr Crow and his colleagues at the RMT must recognise that the more irresponsibly they behave, holding London to ransom, the more they strengthen the argument of those who want a change in strike law.

[Kate Green (Stretford and Urmston) (Lab)]
