Ayr-Man Unfortunately the Trade Union Laws passed by the previous Government meant that strike action against privatisation was illegal and that we could only strike if we had a grievance with our current (at the time) employer. I do share your views though and wish that so many people did not have the "head in the sand attitude" thinking that it would not happen to us! What is needed is a concerted effort by all Unions involved to push for re-nationalisation of NATS, after all, The Government HAS to, by law provide an Air traffic service, unlike a rail service.
