Angry millitants....surely not

Well that will be that then.....the strikes are on. It comes as no surprise really when you consider the media coverage over the last 48 hrs or so, but I do find Gilchrists spoutings difficult to swallow.

To stand on the steps, avoid questions from the journalists about the Iraq situation and how this might affect and indeed endager us all was squirm provoking. 4% is an insult, infact it's dirisory, he said....nonsense! I wonder if closer to the truth was the fact that this is their last opportunity to strike before they would require a new ballot?? Or am I just being suspicious?

4% followed by another 7% next year....yes please!! Then to be subjected to local fiirefighters telling us people are going to die because the Armed Forces can't cope, and how that's down to the government is disgusting!

You've been offered double inflation, get back to work and do the job you joined up to do and indeed agreed to!!!

God bless all over the next few days out on the Green Goddess Crews.
