The massive strike “has been a great success in raising the public’s awareness to the inherent dangers that the coalition government’s policy change will bring to the prison service in the future, said a POA spokesman.

Today’s industrial action by an estimated 400,000 public sector workers over the British government’s pensions changes will hit airports, colleges, military sites and courts, among others.
Meanwhile, about 2,500 prison officers in Scotland have joined the strike by public sector workers, with the Scottish Prison Service saying all jail transfers and visits had been cancelled.
