I'm a member of a union and on permanent hire. I might be involved in the conflict as NF is considering some sort of action in support of NPF/Parat.

I fully understand CaptPS and the contractors dilemma in this case. Personally I will not consider them as scabs simply for fulfilling their contract. This is a fight for those of us lucky enough to have regular employment and backing from a union. This is not a fight for totally unprotected individuals.

A strike will be a legal action and by that give us as members necessary protection. If Norwegian uses contractors to continue their operation then the company must be stopped. Maybe it will be possible to deny them fuel?

The personal sacrifice for any singel contractor is potentially too great to be expected for them to take.
