Aye he did have a mixed approach to workers rights. As Home Secretary in 1910 he improved safety in the mines and prevented the employment of child miners, though disappointed radicals by deploying troops in Wales during a miners strike.

Cwu have got to announce IA for the next 2 weeks tomorow (2/8/07) im hoping! If they dont then please everybody stick to your 318 and no favours etc, people in MC's stick to steady away sorting do not rush about like a lunatic clearing mail etc Also would be a nice idea for everyone to kick the O/T in the head if theres no IA happening...

The last IA dates were for 3 weeks, so next weeks action is already known. I think the Union will wisely wait and see how the talks go first, they still have time to announce the next batch of strikes.

I agree with a comment posted earlier - September will be the time when any IA will have more effect as it is one of the busiest months.

Everyone just needs to hang in there during August if we're going to see the result we want.

Have I missed something? if next weeks action is known it is not known by me. Can someone tell me what it is?

FECK YA WALK GETTING STRAIGHT!! WHEN BIG AL AND lil adam have to come to the table, the more pressure WE put on them , then WE will have a better bartering tool.... Ohhh And i hope after a strike YOU DONT COME IN EARLY AND RUSH AROUND AND USEING YOUR CAR???? If you went out on strike alll that is lost with coming in and working 1 minute early... ALL GONE IN THAT 1ST SECOND YOU WORK BEFORE YOUR TIME.... PLEASE THINK ABOUT IT MATE?????
