Terry's got a decent point, politicians, well conservative politicians, most of whom are elected by a small minority of the population want to take away people's right to withdraw their labour because in their opinion not enough people vote!!! :lol:

More double standards and hypocrisy.

I'd say they'll be out of power before their potential bill has been challenged by every court in the land and Europe.

Perhaps they'll be too busy working out to justify their 10% pay rise?

"Take away people's right to withdraw their labour" are you having a laugh? :?

What about the labour voters who are affected by this?
I support the RMT in their action.

I note the Tories cry "foul" yet again over the strike ballot with proposals that a certain percentage of the members must vote for the strike to be valid.

Pity they don't apply the same logic to general elections, then we'd see who get in! A certain (high) percentage of the electorate voting to enable a government to be formed?

So if the percentage is not reached, what happens next?

Yes once again the government of the day threaten to bring in MORE laws to take away strikers rights!

So what are the Unions doing about it - once again NOTHING! they sit and watch the trade Union movement, slowly but surely being dismantled.

I have said it many, many times - many of the Union leaders are on the government pay roll :evil:

WHERE ARE THE TUC WHEN THREATS LIKE THIS ARE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN..........without so much of a murmer #-o

WTF, don't you get, do you see anyone with a bullwhip forcing people to work?

Not being able to withdraw their Labour, is all in their heads. :-|

If a strike is illegal, you just organise a 'flu epidemic. Simples :wink:
