Selfish because you think of no one but yourself, you don't care who you affect. Unite don't care that they are ruining family holidays of hard working people.

Yes, I agree that unions did a lot in the days of the dark satanic mills but those days are long gone, we have legislation for H&S, working Hours, working conditions, discrimination etc.
You can argue we would have thses laws if wasn't for unions and you may be right, but nowadays unions only exist to serve those that refuse to change. Maybe it'll take something like BA to under and put all their Unite members out of work for them to realise that times have changed.

I hope some of your other 2000+ posts are better informed than this one.
There is a whole thread dedicated to the BA strike. Enlighten yourself by reading that thread.
