I think that I have established that I am a trade unionist. I have also been on leave when my area was on strike. I cancelled my leave and took the hit like everyone else.
I have represented people who I do not like and have listened to people moaning to me about their demands, even when they do not pay a monthly fee that allows them the right to negotiate.
Hey, but you do not do it for thanks, you do it because you believe in it.
I am most definitely in the minority on this thread, but I imagine that on the CF site, that position would be completely reversed.
One thing though, it matters not what I think, it is people like MissM, A Lurker and WWW, along with HiFlyer, Ottergirl and Tiramisu that count. The thread is weaker since the pro strikers left. How can you influence the debate, when all you are debating with is yourselves?
