So for how long have the Drivers union been working out this strike then :erm:

what a prat

He's a typical union leader who will be on full pay whilst the workers are out on strike.

You can bet he does not give a toss about the travelers, He's more interested in getting the workforce out on strike where he wants them.

Why are the unions in this country intent on ruining Christmas this year.

I hope some postmen and postwomen are going on holiday this Christmas they'll now how it feels when your faced with a strike.

thats a tad one sided old chap it takes two sides to do battle .

Actually it only takes one side, the other side is not prepared to just surrender. WWII would have been easy(for Hitler) otherwise.
