    The document calls for workers across different industries and unions to strike together against austerity measures and privatization being imposed by the Conservative government. It notes that firefighters, teachers, and postal workers have either struck or are considering strikes over issues like pensions, education funding cuts, privatization, and workload. The document argues that to effectively resist the attacks, workers need to unite and coordinate strike action, possibly including a general strike, instead of isolated industrial actions.
