Strike Crisis
3rd May 1926: A convoy of Scots Guards troops arriving in Hyde Park in London during the General Strike, called for by the Trades Union Congress. The General Strike involved key industries, such as public transport, building and printing, taking industrial action to support the miners protest against government plans to increase hours and lower pay. Members of the Armed Forces were drafted in to help with essential work but the strikes only lasted nine days from May 4th to May 12th. (Photo by Davis/Topical Press Agency/Getty Images)
