Well the Unite union seems completely incapable of defending members' interests by negotiation in any sector, be it steel or cabin crew, and in incapable of defending their actions in court. The 1992 Act has been in existence 18 years (ref the steel dispute) - it is not a new arsenal of weapons against union, but a rubric through which they have to operate.

Furthermore, the whole lot of them seem incapable of debating the real issues and understanding points of view within the membership, as opposed to the negotiating standpoint that best raises the profile of wannabe politicians among the reps.

UNITE seems as much use as a stuffed Dodo - this week seems to have shown them up in every sector in which they operate.

BASSA - I can consult on your finances for a £1.4m fee. Any takers?
