The Labour Government

[PPT]

Really, so why did it take Labour to do that

How else did they end the strikes?

How else did they end the strikes?

They sat down and negotiated

They sat down and negotiated

They didn’t negotiate, they simply gave them what they asked for.

It was a nice cosy little agreement that they would strike before the election, back up the waiting lists and then get what they wanted when Labour got in.

Wasn’t it 35% they wanted?, don’t recall them getting this.

Here nor there really as the cost to the country of continuing strikes was much worse and something the Tories should hang their heads in shame allowing to continue

We're you in the negotiations?

I know someone who was. Their plans for GBR are very radical and will appear in the public domain in January when we go back in to negotiate for the next deal. They've given the unions heads up for what they expect. There's no such thing as beer and sandwiches at number 10 anymore.

Hang their heads in shame for not accepting a spurious 35% pay rise demand, set at a deliberately extortionate level so that an agreement wouldn’t take place?

Yeah, disgraceful isn’t it?

Plans are not achievements.

Announcements are not achievements.

Other than that they are doing amazing except for where they have scored some of the biggest political own goals imaginable.

Nice try though.

Begs the obvious question; if the plans are so transformative, and require concessions from the unions, then why didn’t the government link these to the pay deal they’ve just signed off?

Hang their head in shame for making no attempt to resolve the dispute.

What was the final settlement that was agreed?

God how I miss the selfless tory angels with a vested interest in the ordinary people and the country at large.
