Unhappy NATS Privatisation

Are we, NATS ATCO's being mislead by our trade union Prospect ?
During the anti privatisation campaign I clearly remember being told, at an ATCO/IPMS meeting, that we could not take strike action to demonstrate our disapproval of the proposed privatisation. This we were clearly told by the IPMS headquarters officer and by the Chair of the ATCO's branch.

Imagine how surprised I was to see, earlier this month, the Naval dockyard workers (civilian) on Clydeside on a one day strike against the proposed privatisation of the Clydeside Naval dockyards. Guess who their trade union is...PROSPECT !!!
HOW COULD THEY DO IT AND NOT US??? ARE THERE SOME COSY AGREEMENTS BETWEEN MR BLAIR AND MR NOON ???

Ayrmis.
