Ahem - 150 people at GCHQ is a new definition of "
many" I hadn't come across before........
(but the 14 staff shouldn't have been sacked).
A lot of the employees at Q are/were ex-forces, so weren't big Union fans (a lot of my ex-colleagues work(ed) there.
However, I personally think banning Unions at Q was wrong, and was pleased when they were re-instated in '97.
