Perhaps you should read up about the three-day week and the winter of discontent in the 70s.

I have thank you I have been a student of sociological perspectives, the 3 day week was imposed by the conservative government it was due to the oil crisis but blamed on the miners to corrode public support.

76 was a boom year fast forward to 1980 and we have 3 million unemployed. The winter of discontent was in part strangely due to the weather, as the conditions actually affected spending and trade. There were also strikes due to wage caps, how is that ant different to now? Our public sector workers are in a state of permanent discontent!
Except there's no 5% limit on wage increases is there? The country is floundering and yet MPs want their 11%

I suggest you read about it as you have apparently missed the message.
