With the growing rate of inflation and the crisis of living.. unprecedented strikes sweep across several sectors in Britain to demand higher salaries

Today, Friday, Britain is witnessing a strike by bus drivers in areas west and south of London, in addition to another strike by postal workers, which has been going on since Thursday.

This comes in light of the continuation of the strike of tens of thousands of university professors and workers across the country, in addition to schools in Scotland.

The Royal College of Nursing in Britain said that tens of thousands of nurses across the kingdom will strike for two days in December to demand an increase in their salaries.

The college announced that its members will hold their first-ever strike on December 15 and 20.

The British news agency PA Media quoted the college as saying it was calling for strikes after the British government withdrew its offer of detailed formal negotiations as an alternative to union action.

Strikes are planned for England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

In Scotland, the college suspended the announcement of a strike after the government reopened negotiations with the National Health Service on wages.

Earlier in November, the college announced that nursing staff of most NHS employers had voted to strike over wages and patient safety.

Continuous strike

Meanwhile, Royal Mail workers and university lecturers plan to continue their strike in Britain on Friday amid long-running disputes over wages, pensions and jobs.

Members of the Telecommunications Workers Union and the Union of Universities and Colleges went on strike on Thursday for 48 hours, with more strikes planned in the coming weeks, according to the British News Agency.

The sit-in was again organized outside universities and Royal Mail centers across the country on "White Friday", one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

The Communications Workers Union - which represents 115,000 Royal Mail workers - had announced a two-day strike that began on Thursday and will continue on Friday.

And she threatened that if no agreement was reached on wages, further strikes would be organized on November 30 and over a period of 7 days in December, including Christmas Eve.

food banks

On the other hand, the living crisis forced several retirees to return to work, with inflation rising to record levels, the highest in decades.

Charities known as "food banks" are also witnessing an unprecedented demand for their services by Britons, including employees.
