For the first time since Adam and Eve the T&G Cab Section are actually representing the workers not the bosses. Image

Surely then they should be congratulated, and how about some good old fashioned secondary action from the drivers ie refusing all work from SCABS on the phones that would shut Coulquhon up pronto.What a tremendous oppurtunity to establish some real CLOUT.
ORGANISE ORGANISE EDUCATE.

This the most interesting story receives no response, which is obviously indicative of why this industry tops the exploitation league, and bottoms the earnings league.What about a comment from a driver in the City????

. Central Staff, Edinburgh / 3:25pm 4 Dec 2006 I personally work with Central, and on beginning my contract of employment with them, short of a year ago, decided not to join the union.
I am pleased with my decision and like the vast majority of my co-workers will not be striking.
