Well, lets look at the possibility for a while as we all know that this site is 'monitored' by those in charge.
The Fire Service have had several strikes in the last decade and have walked away quite happy with the result. The Armed Forces bore the brunt with the most recent strike running over Op Telic. The chaps placed on Op Fiasco had no choice in the matter & were forced into a job well outside their comfort zones, by a long way.
We have no say in our welfare whatsoever, put up and shut up is the only option we have as Service personnel.
Personally, I believe that it would be completely immoral of the armed forces to strike HOWEVER, the manner in which we are often treated must change in order to avoid mass dissaffection in the next 5 years or so.
Some of the die hard folk reading this will simply respond with, "If you don't like it, leave." That attitude is a major part of why we are in the predicament we are in. People who work outside in professional bodies are far more able to protect their rights & quite frankly, I am often appalled at how we are treated.
