This is just me holding the syndicalist view, but I don't see why anyone in the same union or industry should be left to fight alone. There are a couple of hundred thousand members in this union and if we all acted together, POL wouldn't be in this fix and MDEC would be on the same rate of pay as the rest of us. 'Unity is Strength!' That was always a basic principle along with 'An Injury to One is an injury to All'.
i hope that is true iww as i am worried that we'll (thecounters) will be left standing alone for our fight - hope our RM colleague back us up all the way
I suggest we all get on to the CWU right now to make sure this is the case . . . . we must all stand together. . . . but that includes getting ALL the counter staff on side too :no no
Together we stand, divided we fall
