What was the piont of that?
Yep it's coming. Pretty much everyone I have spoke to at work have said they will.vote to strike. Those who work on the bank, have already said they won't pick shifts up, when it comes to it.
Frontline NHS going on strike, might just be the massive wake up call this government need.
You want high skill, high wage. Right. You have the high skill, in tons on professions, where is the high wage?
You get the feeling the media have been briefed to wind him up and paint him as a thug.
First Kay Burley trying to get him to lean towards saying he will promote physical altercation to stop people crossing the picket line. Now this, trying to insinuate he is going to destroy the world, cause he looks like a puppet.
Thankfully he is just not falling into the trap. All it will take is one wrong word or for him to get angry, and the government will have their man in their sights, and paint him as an aggressor. They are not getting it, from him.
Would love him to do an interview with shapps/Greene or whatever he is called this week.

Anyone who ever genuinely expected this shower (pre Johnson included) to want a high wage economy should be drug tested and prevented from ever working with kids.
This lot clearly want a low wage economy, which means putting the majority of the population in a much more precarious situation than they are now so they'll accept low wages, poor conditions and all the rest.

With only reading surface level stuff there are things which I think should be modernised.
Rail workers not working weekends whilst working for a 7 day service seems nonsensical.
On a vastly smaller scale we had this issue with a hospital I was managing. We made a new model based on the needs of the business and made everyone work a 7 day shift pattern and any exemptions were by flexible working requests which were approved only if it suited the hospital as well.
I'm sure there's some roles which have no need to work weekends of course.

Not sure. Maybe screenshot and post the picture?
Good on them. Good luck!
It's not all all the workers, the station staff are required to work 3 out of four, if you can't get cover you have to do it.
Most do it as they get extra pay .
Same as bank holidays ect.
The drivers don't but there are not on strike .
Not to sure on guards around the country but some are same as station staff
They can't do any more as they would go through a law for shift workers hidden 18 the way the shifts work most would hit it.
Again makes good headlines but the majority on strike are already contracted to do it.
