@HarrietSergeant Hi Harriet You or her Mum (as she won't have been allowed to come here on her own) should probably tell her about Article 44 of the Ukrainian Constitution that allows for strikes. So no idea why she would be surprised that striking is allowed in England.

What a great looking event. No Ukrainians, no diaspora, and no-one who fled the war. But there is a former member of the communist party, whose symbol is banned in Ukraine, so there's that. And the guy who suggested giving weapons to Ukraine would prolong the war.
