►We started January with 5 consecutive days of rail strikes. Today a 16-day rolling strike by teachers in Scotland gets underway. NHS ambulance workers have already been on strike, they've got another one coming - and nurses in England have another 2-day strike later this week. Today, The Nation Education Union declared seven days of walkouts in February and March.
It comes as MPs are about to debate controversial plans for a new law on holding strikes, which is designed to ensure minimum levels of service during industrial action.
The Bill is in response to the wave of strikes which has been sweeping across the country for months, in bitter disputes over pay, jobs and conditions.
