July 10 in the UK: Strike against government policy on cutting public sector costs and jobs.
The GMB said council and school workers voted by three to one to walk out on 10 July over a pay offer worth 1% to most. The date is significant because it has been earmarked as a general day of protest over government policy on cutting public sector costs and jobs.
Members of public service union Unison have already voted to strike over pay on the same day. The National Union of Teachers has also voted to strike on 10 July, raising the prospect of disruption in schools across England and Wales.
The government is now facing a walkout by more than a million public sector workers next month, including council staff, school support workers, teachers and civil servants.
"Their case is reasonable, the employers won't listen and don't care. No wonder they have turned to strike action as the only way of making their voices heard. "With other unions involved too, 10 July looks like being the second biggest dispute ever, with up to two million workers on strike."
