To stop the Goverment from tightening the trade union laws for industrial action.
Unions for years have created better working conditions for the working class where now the government want to bring in tighter controls on industrial action.

Current discussions in Parliament where some MP's are against the motion and the trade unions are also currently objecting as this is a breach of human rights and free speech.
