It's a pity BASSA didn't listen to Jimmy Reid's famous speech to the Glasgow shipbuilders back in the 70's during their sit-in:

"There will be no hooliganism, there will be no vandalism, there will be no bevvying, because the world is watching us, and it is our responsibility to conduct ourselves with responsibility, and with dignity, and with maturity."

Maybe we would have a different opinion of the BASSA strikers if they had followed that theme instead of behaving like spoilt brats, but there again maybe we wouldn't!
