BRITAIN saw its biggest day of strike action in a decade yesterday, as half a million public-sector workers protested over pay and working conditions in “walkout Wednesday.”

Teachers, lecturers, civil servants and train drivers withdrew their labour nationwide, with many gathering for massive demonstrations in London, Cardiff, Brighton, Liverpool, Newcastle and elsewhere.

The TUC accused the Tory government’s “Cabinet of millionaires” of being unable to understand the impact of falling real-terms wages and double-digit inflation on struggling key workers.
