I suspect most of the public do not support the strikes

Most people do not support the strikes. I know unions bung Labour a lot of cash but perhaps you could back people not unions. When Labour loose the next election it could be because you put unions before the public. But if you work for the rail firms and do not like the pay or whatever all you need do is quit and let someone else have your job. But don’t strike and stop trains running as it means nurses and doctors cannot get to work. It means women cannot get home and may be attacked. It means some old lady cannot go to hospital and get her operation.
