Britain is facing an "autumn of discontent" with strikes looming for a host of public services in just months.
Unions representing nurses and GPs are the latest groups to threaten to cripple Britain with fresh strike action.
Nurses in England, Wales and Northern Ireland rejected the Government's offer to increase their pay by 3.6 per cent in their droves.

According to the Royal College of Nursing, the largest nursing union in Britain, a record number of members voted on the ballot, with an overwhelming 91 per cent voting "no" to the offer.
GPs are also considering strike action for later this year over Government plans to save the NHS, which they have claimed “threatens the survival” of the health service in its current model.
The British Medical Association represents GPs, among other medical professionals across Britain, including "resident doctors".
Resident doctors, previously known as junior doctors, walked out for five days after their demand for a further pay rise of 26 per cent was turned down by the Government.

The Government has also been warned by the Unite union that bin strikes in Birmingham could rage on until December as the stand-off with the Second City's council continues.
Refuse workers in the city initially walked out in January after the union claimed 170 staff would be set to lose £8,000 a year after the council axed Waste Collection and Collection Officer roles.
However, the workers have been carrying out an all-out strike since March - with grim scenes of rubbish piled high on Birmingham's streets as a result.
Last month, the leader of Birmingham City Council, John Cotton, said the authority had reached "the absolute limit" of what it could offer the union during talks and confirmed that they were "walking away" from negotiations.

The walkouts are scheduled to commence on September 5 with engineers, service control workers and signallers set to temporarily down tools.
The strike action is believed to cause chaos across multiple lines on the transport network.
Eddie Dempsey, the RMT's general secretary, said: “Our members are doing a fantastic job to keep our capital moving and work strenuous shift patterns to make sure Londoners get to their destinations around the clock.
“They are not after a king’s ransom, but fatigue and extreme shift rotations are serious issues impacting on our members' health and well-being - all of which have not been adequately addressed for years."
RMT members rejected an offer of a 3.4 per cent pay rise from Transport for London London Underground.
Reform UK's deputy leader Richard Tice said: "Labour are being taken for a one way ride by transport unions despite having already been rewarded with substantial pay increases.
"If they continue to cave in, then it will unleash a vicious circle of public sector pay increases."
