Yeah, that is exactly what happens every single time a union negotiates for a pay rise.

Strikes purely over pay are very rare these days and its about 30 years since a union leader called a strike. Over anything.
Err.... tube and train drivers, immigration staff , airport workers.
Conveniently timed to cause mass disruption to the biggest event in this country for years.
And yes the bus drivers of London got their £550 bonus.
I hope Boris fires the fucking lot after the closing ceremony.

That's because the only way a strike will work is if it causes inconvenience. What's the point in a strike if noone notices?
The only power the working class have is that of withdrawal of labour, and it scares the bosses shitless. Long live the unions

That's bollocks that...They wanted to feather their own nest with an extra payment because they knew they could "blackmail" them into paying one off bonuses and even now are threatening to walk out again. It's pure an utter greed, this is not what unions are for.

Maybe you're on a wind up or maybe not but either way there are a lot of people who think like that.

I would have a bit ( but not a lot) of respect for the first non member, who after the union had negotiated them a pay rise or improved conditions, informed their employer that they would like to stick to their old rate of pay, as they wouldn't want to be benefitting from anything a union they don't belong to had negotiated.

They moan like fuck to get rises and when the firm say we can't do it the unions bring the firm to a standstill, risking the company as a whole. Eventually the firm crack and give them the rises, six months down the line there are redundancies as the firm is now struggling. Well done the union.
Who loses their jobs? Not the fucking union leaders that's for sure.
