    Ah but remember they had to strike before the talks because erm, the governments mind was already made up....

    This time, its just personal.

    They should be thankful they still have a job!!! There only hurting themselves and our struggling economy. Not a smart move guys time to see reality, and stop acting like children! Were all facing tough times, just be thankful your getting more than £45 a week.

    These strikes are wrong at a time when negotiations are going on, people have been let down by both sides, the government has acted recklessly..............

    Most of them are hardly likely to be difficult to replace. Get rid of the strikers, there are plenty of people who would be glad of a job!

    Lecturer here. Myself and everyone I spoke to in my place voted 'No' to striking.

    I just hope nationally people have the sense to do the same.

    Re: More public sector stikes

    You just can't get enough of this topic can you?

    The Government is attempting to use public sector pensions as some kind of windfall tax so that it can plug the mistakes of its big city, small-willied banking buddies. Y'know the reckless, useless chancers that have ruined the lives of millions of people but still get their bonuses. Public Sector pensions have already been reviewed and changed by Hutton to ensure their affordability (which they are).

    You lot are simply bitter because you've failed to invest in a pension scheme of your own or the scheme you were in has shut up shop and robbed you.

    It is unfair to vent your bitterness on the people who provide you with just about every worthwhile service that you need to be able to live.

    Re: More public sector stikes

    For me Santa, I said 'No' due to the current negotiations still being underway, not the final result of said negotiations. Not that I have any faith in the government what so ever.

    Understood Agent. But just remember, an animal bares its teeth to avoid a fight; at the same time showing it means business. No-one wants a fight but sometimes people are pushed into a corner.

    Or does your line of work involve coming down a chimney.

    It worked quite well in diverting the focus away from a thread topic we have done to death many times over .

    So when they strike you're suggesting 2 weeks on the golf course? That'll learn 'em.
