Strikes are called for by union members. It's a long process with many checks and balances in place to ensure that strike action is the only remaining action. The vast majority of negotiations between an employer and a Union don't lead to industrial action, nor even the threat of it, so the comparison to the Police Federation is valid.
Strikes are very costly to Trade Unions so you're wrong to think that Unions want to take strikes with the purpose of running any company into the ground.
You're a clever man Derek. How does a Union win by running a company into the ground. A business being run into the ground will inevitably lead to redundancies.Members losing their jobs means lost revenue for the Union.
That's not a definition of the word victory I'm familiar with
If you think that Trade Union members are like Turkeys voting for Christmas you're deluded.
