#teachersstrike

"Teachers are on their knees", one person who is striking told the Guardian. "We are seeing the impact of a decade of underfunding ... which has left us in a social crisis". Nearly 500,000 workers in the UK walked out today, with unions accusing the government of failing to take negotiations seriously. #strikes #teachersstrike #uknews #london #ukstrikes | Footage shows teachers, alongside other workers, marching through London as part of the UK's biggest day of strikes in a decade | Teachers have said that pay erosion, staff shortages and underfunding is the reason they are taking part in the strikes | Up to half a million people took part in the industrial action, including civil servants, border force staff and train drivers
