Originally posted by scooterscot View PostWell you can only blame the government for so much. The unions must talks the majority of the responsibility here. They exist to protect the workers interests and they did the bleeding opposite. How thick can union members be?
Now it looks like Unions primarily exist to protect union and labour party interests anything else is incidental, much like governments exist to protect the opportunities for directorships and consultancy roles for mps in the governing party

I think the unions need to realise that they've bitten off more than they can chew with this one. The owners don't have to be re-elected, don't care about public opinion and really don't have to put in efforts to save a loss-making plant if they don't want to. The owners have made it quite clear that the unions are pointless this time, the workers either accept the new terms or go sign on down the dole office.

Originally posted by vetran View Postyes but like the religious, bad things are never Labour's fault when you talk to their followers.
Its CMD's fault he shouldn't tax the working man so much whilst giving the rich tax breaks.
And if Labour are in power its all Maggie's fault

More votes Salmong means less labour voters, and the potential of a permanent tory government in England
