Answer 1

Yes I would, I'm on strike today.

Answer 2

Answer 3

That would be dependent on the reasons for it.

Can you expand on your question a bit?

Answer 5

Same as KOW.

I would have to know the reason for the strike yet I would go out to defend their right to strike.

Answer 6

I am a member of a union and if there was to be a strike I'm afraid I could not join in. Doing the job I do it would go against my ethics. Most of my work colleagues say the same.

Answer 7

You mean a general strike? It would depend on the reason of course. I do believe that we have the right to withhold labour though.
