Well said Biggles, sitting on the other side of the world looking in. I don't know how things down unda are at the moment, but in Ireland they are on their arse. High rates of unemployment, failing economy in nearly ever sector, businesses collapsing or relocating overseas, tax, income levy and national insurance hikes in order to bail out the economy, appauling weather and disruption, widescale flooding leaving large sections of the community homeless......the list is endless...endless
and how does striking for an extra 6% help that little lot?
