Anyway looking at the way the election campaign is going it's going to happen which will make me a happy man on behalf of those that have previously been poorly treated by their employers.
And I think you've misconstrued Chris's point. He was drawing an analogy if I remember correctly.

Health and Safety is a different issue. If someone is injured then it is no longer a private issue between employer and employee.
As for "the way the election campaign is going", I take it you believe that Mr. Bliar (who has yet to call an election), will stay in power? That remains to be seen. I certainly hope not.
