Saturday delivery will go so more jobs are cut.

Ever thought of Tue- Sat, Saturday is too good a business day to lose it ( DSA SH*T )

Personally I thought that was a reasoned article and actually puts the position between the union and RM quite succinctly.

Despite the protestations of the union glitterati I feel sure there HAS been a financial deal between the two and that the agreement was based solely on that premise. The frenzy to get a yes vote by the union hierarchy was obscene.

What, I wonder, is the secret talks between the condem and the unions about? Is that a conspiracy theory or reality?

It's a peace pact dv...pure and simple.
Neither side can afford financially to go to war and neither side has the stomach or the balls for it anyway.
So a deal will be done with the devil probably along the lines of as little industrial action as possible against as little anti-union laws as possible....sound like a deal?........no doubt trumpeted as the deal of the century....quietly of course.
