As a union man, I would have thought you would be loudly cautioning your fellow union members not to allow such garbage to influence their decisions regarding the offer. People's careers are on the line here.
Absobloodylutely agree. But I am not a BASSA rep and I cannot directly respond. However, if I was a betting man, I would put a £5'er on the removal of a benefit because of strike action, could prove to be unlawful.
As to the link, I think it is a load of tosh, but it appears to be another rallying call. I didn't research the link, I saw it somewhere else. New rules need to be drawn up in this 24/7 media world. As you say, the link should be dismissed, but that would be seen as weak by a very vocal group, therefore discrediting the comment that you were trying to make.
Make sense?
