ReportDon't let them label our glorious national 30th November 2011 strike similar to the Callaghan government's media labelled "winter of discontent". Our present warm winter striking prospect is, on the contrary "Our Winter of Jubilation". And, if all who support strong public sector pensions can see us win through will then be enabled to encourage the private sector, so downcast in their privatised employ, to re-unionise with us once more...
GET WISE! 'YOU PRIVATE GUYS' & UNIONISE!
