It's a bit like two houses where both get burgled. One has paid insurance, yet the other that hasn't still gets reimbursed for the stolen items.
You do have a point about some Trade Union leaders though, i've met a few...
I would imagine that if a group of former employees have been identified as being due a payment, trade union membership is irrelevant, unless this payment is different to the one i'm thinking of...

Well in my view it should not be why should paying union members whose subs were used to fund this case subsidise those those that could not be bothered or at worst like somebody i work with make a boast out of not joining the union,but are content to take all it negotiates for rant over,the only rerason the ex woolies saff were identified for a payout was bcause the union fought for one.
I feel very sorry for all the albert dock staff who have proved very helpful on here,and wish each and every one a swift return to employment
