Nope. They mean you cannot strike. Like they want to do with nurses, a strike will mean a minimum proportion of staff cannot join the strike to ensure there is no "disruption". Feck actually paying people.

Just blatant lying.
Gutter politics.,
Didn't realise they were using the Etihad for the conference
This is beautiful.
Liz Truss has thick skin you have to hand it to her.
Fixed it for you.
Next up, this bitch.

So basically the MO for this party conference is - invent a lie/conspiracy, then say how the Tories will fight against it.
Sounds about right.

Hasn't she breached the code multiple times now? She's an absolute moron.
Probably helps that she hasn’t the foggiest what’s going on.
Straight out of the Republican's playbook. Detestable people.
I make a point of going on holiday every time these cnuts have their party conference in Manchester just to keep my distance and rage levels down.
And they'll still win the next election
How it works here is they must provide peak time services. Outside those hours they can strike. For essential services like transport it's a great idea.
Tell us you don’t understand how strikes work without telling us you don’t understand how strikes work.
Wouldn’t it be better if people said “we’re currently on strike but didn’t actually strike?”
Kind of defeats the point of striking. Almost like that's why they brought in those laws.
You are aware there are already laws surrounding strikes?
From anecdotal evidence I think there's a good chance Labour win in mid-Bedfordshire. The Lib Dems started campaigning early and probably had some momentum but I think their campaign has been pretty weak and near enough all based on slagging off the Conservative and saying Labour can't win so vote for us. They've also been caught out by saying the Labour candidate lives in London despite relocating to Bedfordshire a few months ago which makes them look a bit silly.
I think the Labour leaflets have been pretty good and the only candidate that says what they will do, rather than generic "improve cost of living" or "reduce GP wait times". Feel like I'm seeing Labour campaigners out and about everyday in big numbers too.
I've seen very little campaigning from the Conservative but in an area like this, they don't need to go to the same lengths as Labour.

That is disgusting.
I wonder where she learnt that playbook?
Seems to be the same rhetoric you and may others would spout about Corbyn... I suppose the shoe is now on the other foot so we can go back to saying how awful that sort of politics is.
The damage this man has done to this country and the Western world is incalculable.

You heard it hear folks, The Tories are the party of beauty and nature.
Barclay talking about stopping the NHS from forcing staff to declare their pronouns to patients.
Literally never once been asked to declare my pronouns by anyone, ever.
Making up total nonsense.

Oh feck off. How does he know what the country wants, he doesn't even have a mandate!
I don't know if I'm being naive but this feels absolutely ridiculous even for the Tory party. They have obviously lied for the last few years repeatedly but to invent arguments (meat tax, war on motorists, 15-minute cities) to then say that only the Tories will fight against them is surely a new low? Glad to see political commentators seem to be actually calling them out on these rather than the more obscure lies that they have let slide in the past.
Sophie Ridge did a bit, but the likes of the Sun had a verbatim graphic of those different made up things Sunak was saying he's fighting and it'll resonate with the Sun/DM/Tel readers any beyond. The BBC isn't going to call them out.
I'm finding Braverman's increasingly dangerous anti-immigration rhetoric far worse though. It's incessant, increasingly vituperative and is only going to stoke hatred and likely violence. She can shove her racist British values up her fecking arse.
I legit will move to another country if this happens, the country will go so far down in the gutter if they do and equality of the rich and poor will be so much further apart, I can't wrap my head around how people have access to all info online but still stupidly fall for intelligence insulting lies and laughable loony conspiracy crap.
Back in the day, people used to say the absolute bedrock Tory vote was 30%. It couldn’t go lower, that was your basic swivel eyed hardcore base. Well, that’s not true anymore, it’s more like 25%. All this shite is designed to get them to that 30% but it won’t get them any further. There is no majority in being BlueKip, they are dead as a party of government maybe for good.
What is that British way of life, be anti brown skinned immigrants, hate anyone on any type of benefits and be able to make a 3 course meal out of 30p?
America is half full of that type. People believe what they want at this stage
I saw something on social media saying he is going to struggle in an election campaign. Him and Truss were used to campaigning in front of friendly activists during their campaigns. They have never undergone questions during an election campaign. This robotic approach just isn't going to work.
So much for free speech.
They're more concerned with appeasing themselves and those in the party than the actual public, namely the hard right. The term 'out of touch' is bandied around a lot, but the lack of opposition and sequential internal elections has led to them losing all awareness of the UK population. The public are a complete afterthought in their rhetoric and policy, and hopefully the Tories will get a very big shock in the near future.
This is fecking despicable, why are GMP getting involved in what essentially amounts to private security for the conference? That bloke wasn’t breaking any laws.
