British Government reported that they were not working on the double-digit wage increases demanded by unions.

The prime minister’s spokesman, Max Blain, said the government was trying to reach a fair deal with unions over wage discussions.

Blain said unions were clear that they could not accept requests for double-digit wage increases and that these requests “would make inflation more permanent.”

He added that they did not want the strike to continue and the dispute to end.

Meanwhile, the UK government has introduced legislation into parliament that would limit striking actions by employees in key sectors of the public sector.

The regulations are expected to cover rail, fire, and ambulance services.

Unions, on the other hand, described the law as “undemocratic and illegal”, which would force workers in key public sectors to provide minimum services even if they decided to strike.

The teachers, nurses, train and ambulance unions in England announced they would strike again in February and March to demand a raise.

Meanwhile, hundreds of people gathered in the capital, London, to protest the government’s policies national health system.

Hundreds of nurses in England yesterday decided to strike for 48 hours.

The nurses, affiliated with the union”Royal Nursing Academy(RCN), left jobs at 55 hospitals after the government failed to grant them the pay increases they demanded.
