In my opinion the "problem" of Working Together is one of perception. The aims are very laudable however when one sees union representatives meeting mangement overnight in fancy hotels for dinner and drinks and then as a union member you ask what was said and agreed only to have your request turned down due to confidentiality and our other issues it does make one wonder what is going on.
In the late 1940s George Orwell wrote a book called Animal Farm which was a critique of the Soviet Union under Stalinism in which the leaders of the revolution the pigs ran the farm for the benefit of all the workers. I would suggest that it might required reading for all union members.
