| Message | So... you'll arrest people for not turning up to work? Is the SDP the only party concerned about civil liberties? |

| Message | This isn't a violation of Civil Liberties SDP. This is called looking out for the public. We are talking about the Public Sector. The Private sector still has the right to strike. |

| Message | We're quite aware you're talking about the public sector. We merely feel that public sector workers too should not be arrested for turning up to work. |

| Message | They won't be arrested SDP! Your taking it to extreme. It is simple. If they strike, they get fired. |

| Message | "If they strike, they get fired." They can be fired at the moment, if the employer desires. You don't need a change in the law for that. This bill will make it illegal for any employee of the government to strike. Committing an illegal act results in arrest. |
