And in fact, I didn't call union members militant, I said "militant people striking".

Seeing as we're coming up to exam time, I'd say every day counted, wouldn't you?

I would say that about them because it's true. I have to endure their endless ineptitude. I'm talking about all areas of councils... planning, refuse collection, children's services (especially children's services), housing, council tax, electoral services... in fact any area that a constituent may have a problem with. So that's pretty much all of them.

Its a generalisation then to suggest striking people are militant...Maybe they feel that if enough people voice the same view it will make a difference?
Hmmmm, who mentioned miners?....haha

Better tell the government every child matters.....

Let me guess...Especially in child services they 'don't have any funding available'.....
Everywhere else it is not their department, and you get so frustrated you give up?
