The worse part about this whole post is it has become personal. The 1989 industrial action was doomed before it began, blind Freddy could see that the size of the ambit claim was over the top.
While I believe unity is the key to every industrial action designed to achieve change and improved conditions, the whole strategy of the AFAP was suicidal in concept and execution.
The anger and angst between those who stayed out and those who went back is well and truly past its use by date.
Maybe we should approach Don King and invite all and sundry to get in the ring and punch the crap out of each other as therapy and the means to end once and for all the energy sapping belligerence.
After televising it worldwide, collecting the royalties and divvying up the cash, what would have been achieved.....NOTHING. we can't change the past... Get over it ....
