Hear, hear - Just ask your questions and nod sagely during the Joint Briefing. You're not going to get anything other than the agreed party line from the Management/NTUS side.
Now, when the Management leave the room...let this be the time to unleash the full force of OUR opinion to OUR Representitives as to what we feel about this situation.
OUR representitives assured us during privatisation that the pension was safe.
This IS the time to fight - Be under no illusions, if you take a step back on this, there will be no Pension five years down the line.
