The country’s largest education union will campaign in Labour MPs’ constituencies and make them “pay a high political price” if the pay offer is not improved, a union chief has warned.

Daniel Kebede, general secretary of the National Education Union (NEU), said they “stand ready” to take strike action if the Government’s final pay and funding offer is not increased//

Vote Labour, get strikes

This is what happens whenever a Labour Govt surrenders to outrageous pay demands, as they have already done, to appease their union paymasters.

 

As soon as they bribe one union, as sure as eggs are eggs another union will be along grasping for public money.

 

T'was ever thus.

But the only way for the teacher unions to make Labour pay a "high political price" is to switch their affiliation to Tory/Reform or (as a last resort) Lib-Dem. Big threat!🙄

You must ask yourself this: would the teaching unions rather see a Tory/Reform/LibDem/Whatever government in preference to a Labour one, just because the government did not meet their demands?

In other words, come election time, are they going to say “Labour didn’t give us a good enough pay rise, so we recommend everybody votes Tory”?

I suspect the answer to both those questions is “No”. So Mr Kebede is talking drivel.
