  Wow, that would mean 32 more seats than even Blair’s massive landslide victory. 
  You have to go back 100 years to find any such landslide as 450 seats (1929).
context: the craziest thing in all of this...a nursing union literally offered to postpone a strike if the Minister spoke with them... he refused to hold a simple conversation... so they've gone on strike. 
  ​
  That's how bad it is nowadays >
  
  Surely they can use that 350 Million GBP a week they aren't paying to the EU to employ more nurses /s >
  
  Just let the free market deal with it, eventually nurses will simply do it for the love of saving lives! >
  
  Or maybe every person employed by Rupert Murdoch . All the guys who work at his newspapers can fill in for the nurses . >

  You will see a General Strike before the government get to implement their anti-strike laws (that enable employers to sack employees striking, and enables employers to sue unions that do not follow the rules they haven't even put into writing when passing this law)
  The law also has a clause in it that enables the government to change it however which way they want without requiring parliamentary scrutiny. 
  The law passed through parliament the other day - tories that don't like it still voted for it anyway - so is now required to get through the Lords before it can be implemented (with the vague wording changed as per the aforementioned clause)
  Not satisfied with costing the nation tens of billions a year with Brexit, more tens of billions in corrupt contracts to their mates and yet more in tax evasion, they've now cost billions more this past year by refusing to talk to any unions. Their own ministers have openly stated that it would have saved money if they had negotiated with the unions. 
  The list of groups that have been on strike/partaken in strike-like actions in the last year:
  
  Postal Workers
  Train Drivers
  Underground workers
  Rail workers
  Bus drivers
  Doctors
  Nurses (first time in their history!)
  Ambulance service
  Emergency Services Call Handlers
  Fire Brigade
  Police (not allowed to strike but a few forces have done equivalents in the last year)
  Bin men
  Barristers and various court staff
  Civil Service generally
  Border Force
  Dock workers
  Teachers
  Care workers
  Airline workers (attendants etc)
  Airport workers (baggage handlers and others)
  Driving examiners
  University Staff - Lecturers, Librarians, admin staff and cleaners.
  Broadband/Telecoms engineers
  National Highways staff
  Rural Payments Agency
  Physiotherapists
  
  Truss branded strikers 'militants' - but I think this covers most of society that have access to a union at this point. Even Army bosses made a thinly veiled statement about using them to plug holes when they themselves haven't seen adequate pay rises and face big problems with treatment of personnel, pretty much stating that they would be striking too if they could.
  So, international viewers, who do you reckon are the problem? This cross-section of society, or the government? >
  
  As an international viewer i think Britain needs to stop voting tory >
  
  If you had a general election right now, Starmer (labour) would win by a landslide of Tony Blair proportions.  
  It’s not that Starmer is anywhere near as popular,‘it’s how badly the Torie a are viewed now.
  I mean when you’ve got people like Rod Stewart who has voted conservative his entire life, calling in to news stations to say it’s time for a labour government, you know the tories are screwed.
