About this Event

2026 will be the centenary of the General Strike. At one minute to midnight on 3 May 1926, Britain came to a standstill for nine days when the Trades Union Congress called a national strike. Join Christine Coates who will look at the background to the strike, what happened, and ask was anything gained?
