Government may use Army at Airports? 10 days strike this month. [Strikes will take place on 23rd to 26th and 28th to 31st December impacting Birmingham Airport, Cardiff Airport, Gatwick, Glasgow, Heathrow, Manchester and the Port of Newhaven.] [They are due to strike throughout Christmas in a row over pay, jobs and conditions, the Public and Commercial Services union said.] Last edited by arista; 07-12-2022 at 02:26 PM. |

everyone needs a pay rise it doesnt mean that every employer can afford it. People have to weigh up whether its better to have a lower salary than none at all, which is a distinct possibility in many cases

We have unions for that, but we don't usually strike at our workplace. We usually come to an agreement eventually.

[People should "think carefully" about going on
holiday over the Christmas period after Border Force workers became the latest to announce they would go on strike, the home secretary has said. Suella Braverman has urged people to rethink flying around the festive period as she warned of "undeniable, serious disruption for the many thousands who have holiday plans". "I really want to urge people who have got plans to travel abroad to think carefully about their plans because they may well be impacted," she said. "Ultimately, I'm not willing to compromise on security at the border - that's the number one priority.] https://news.sky.com/story/people-sh...stmas-12763822 Last edited by arista; 08-12-2022 at 11:41 AM. |

Negotiation resolves strikes, not more and more restrictive laws. If we keep going down the new laws path, we will be like Russia before we know it

I think they've misjudged the public mood on this one as well. At times there's been a lot of resentment towards strikers when it's seemed they're trying to have their cake and eat it but things are so bad across society right now that there seems to be quite a lot of support for strikers. Why should people side with a government who can't deliver public services and have been a complete shambles for the last few months

if they bring in minimum service levels, it's the equivalent of forced labour and that is a very slippery slope to be going on
