I've had some time to think about my decision now, as making my choice that close to the briefing would have been silly. I've made my decision and I'm going to be a NO, mainly because i dont like the idea of being tied into a crap deal for 15 years, also the 'guarantees' given by the NTUS seem to me to be wishy washy, and nothing more than guidelines, that the company will be able to wiggle around. too many endeavour to's , and not enough cast iron guarantees in an MOU that may or not be binding.
mostly though, the idea of barron walking away,or driving the DB9, after 'improving the company's financial future', with a huge bonus and ripping his hugely improved pension pot away to whatever company he goes to screw over next with a satisfied grin on his face
That has made my mind up. The question's asked here are very telling...
'Do i trust Paul Barron' ... not on your f***ing life.
more sadly..
'do i trust my union to represent me'....not any more
and i think that is almost as sad as the whole pensions debacle. The fact that Barron has driven a stake through the heart of the union , could cause us the most trouble in the future.
well done Prospect, you should be very proud
