Sir Keir Starmer is under renewed pressure to ditch Angela Rayner's flagship Employment Rights Bill, which is returning to Parliament tomorrow for debate.
Despite Ms Rayner's resignation over underpaid stamp duty earlier this month, the Prime Minister has insisted that he will press ahead with the Bill, which opponents have warned will cost businesses £5 billion a year.
The legislation, dubbed the 'Unemployment Bill' by critics, contains a raft of pro-union measures, including the right to switch off and entitlements for employees from the moment they start work.
Shadow Business Secretary Andrew Griffith has warned Sir Keir that he must 'reduce the huge burdens' the Bill will place on business and water down plans that make it even easier to strike.
'Crippling strikes will be the new normal in Spineless Starmer's Broken Britain,' he added. The chaotic scenes in London last week following the Tube strikes will be just the start.
