An event like this doesn't happen very often, and it will be interesting to see whether Emerald go from strength to strength, or whether they actually start to suffer industrial disruptions, and ultimately this pushes them over the edge. In which case it would be a pyrrhic victory for the unionists.
Not sitting on either side of the fence, but we should look back in a year's time and see if this really has been a good thing for the staff. I hope it has, but given the frailty of Emerald, it might not be.
