John McDonnell sets out plan for 32-hour working week

The video discusses the historical reduction of work hours from 65 hours in the 1860s to 43 hours by the 1970s, largely due to trade unions. However, progress has stalled since the 1980s, with people working some of the longest hours in Europe. The Labour party plans to reduce the average full-time working week to 32 hours within the next decade.
