More Strikes?

Here we go again, more disgruntled workers not happy with just having a job. I thought this strike thing ended with Thatcherism. Apparently BT could face strike action from 50,000 employees over a pay dispute when the result of a ballot is known later today. With recent strikes from The Post Office and British Airways I feel like we have gone back to the eighties!

    I was in the print trade when the print unions were smashed by Rupert Murdoch at the Wopping dispute in London 1986, I’ve been out of work on and off since. Redundancy after redundancy and getting poorer every time. These guys should be thankful for a job!

    BT were too frightened of the unions, they gave workers what they wanted very quickly!
