My ballot paper still behind the clock on the mantle piece, a big decision to make, do I let my heart rule my head ?

anybody want to bottom line for me - WHY we should strike, and, to achieve WHAT?

its GETTING SOLD - nothing will stop it - 'cept zero interest from buyers, which I doubt.

We can't strike over privatisation. but we can make it as messy as possible.

The reasons why I am voting yes are all over the board but basically.

The pay rise - its below inflation, is not guaranteed and its got chains.
The No strike deal - No Union should accept a No strike deal.
The Pension - Acceptance of all their changes which means if RPI is over 5% your pension loses its value each year
The 3 year guarantee - Not long enough for me, and probably pointless anyway.
The Industrial Stability Agreement - A no strike deal in all but name.

Thanks for the reply, TBT - everything listed there is ideals we've striked for previously - and tbh, can't remember if we scored a victory.
bores me to tears. no doubt I shall be on the picket line with the rest - but don't see what we will achieve from it.

No we have never has a NO STRIKE deal on the table - that on its own could spell the end of the Union influence and any chance of us getting our collective opinions heard.

aw gawd, don't think the " no strike " thing matters a damn - cos we can strike all we want - only thing that happens is we lose wages, cos we go back in and clear up any backlogs quick sharpish.

to strike where it hurts - we have to come up with summat that DOES hurt the bloody company!!

[TrueBlueTerrier]

It does with the 3 year legally binding agreement - thats there so if we do go on strike its against the law and we can all be sacked, and the Unions fund sequestered.

However for me its not the headline stuff, its the delivery stuff thats going on behind the scenes. The B&H, workloads and absorption apparently a special Delivery forum is ongoing between RM and the Union.

[Crazy Daisy]

Just voted YES. Hope it does some good but think our future has just been sold down the river. Why do the faceless suits always come out on top ????
