Not an opinion. Think it's a fact isn't it?

No, same protections as members, so long as the strike is legal itself.

No not legally but i think without the unions backing for disputes in workplace you become pretty easy pickings.

You can be sacked if you strike when not a member of the union if certain criteria aren’t met. Only strike if you are certain all rules have been followed.

What criteria?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

All the info is on the gov.uk website. You’ll find that nothing I have stated is untrue.

You’re trying really hard to start an argument with me.

I stated that if you strike when not part of the union you can be sacked if certain criteria hasn’t been met. So you should only strike if you know all criteria has been met.

Make of that what you will.
