“Things like driving ambulances and other parts of the public sector – we have got to try and minimise disruption.”
Conservative Party chairman Nadhim Zahawi said the Government is putting contingency plans in place to minimise disruption from a series of public sector strikes. Mr Zahawi said the military could be involved in driving ambulances and securing the country’s borders.
“We have been looking at the military, we are looking at a specialist response force which we have actually set up a number of years ago. We have to make sure our borders are always secure and that is something we guarantee. Around 2,000 military personnel and civil servants are being trained to support a range of services – including Border Force at airports and ports – in the event of strike action, the Cabinet Office has said. They include up to 600 armed forces personnel and 700 staff from the Government’s specialist Surge and Rapid Response Team, as well as other parts of the Civil Service.
