that is a difficult one cause a lot of the non union ones I know are making no secrets of the fact that they want us to fight their battles and they will reap the rewards. It would solve all problems if the non members did not benefit from others losses. So basically I suppose it depends on their attitudes

Shelanda, Thank you for your input and the intelligent debate, but if that view was taken further Maggie was elected by all and brought in poll tax so we should of all supported it ?? Mugabe has the vote in Zimbabwe ! does that make it right ??
we gave our best yes i walked all through the first part of strikes but an old army expression is " dont reinforce defeat " General Gordon Khartoum our leaders called a stop but would not dare do a re vote why ? cos to many peeps reap too much from it ?? were we ever asked if we accepted the first offer ? No so figth

Sorry but can't see this argument UNION is a lot different. we SHOULD all understand the rules of our union or LEAVE.semacsorter wrote:Shelanda, Thank you for your input and the intelligent debate, but if that view was taken further Maggie was elected by all and brought in poll tax so we should of all supported it ??

Why should they object to being called strike breakers?

Re: Scab
My leaders ? .................. The old days are over? .................. Have you ever heard of the old addage about wheels turning full circle?semacsorter wrote:You might call them a Scab i take it the right to one's personal choice no longer exists in your eyes and that the bully boy tactics used by some is what you prefer !! if you feel that the only way you can win is by theese tactics then perhaps a country like Burma is the place for you. If you and the likes of you are fighting for your rights !! Good for you, but at least give the people who dont agree the obportunity to do what they want, without being bullied or threatened by those who have reaped the benefits of many years of union domination ! even your leaders have realised that the old days are over.
This is still a democratic country last time i looked bully boy tactics are better represented by black shirts not blue !!!
As I said, a scab is a scab, nothing honourable about being a scab, nothing heroic about being a scab , everything to be ashamed of in being a scab.
Oh, and strike breakers go against the DEMOCRATICALLY taken decision to undertake IA in response to an employers lunatic demands, so please don't preach
to me about democracy.

Re: Scab
He's an obvious nob, H. This influx of Quislings we've had since the demise of Hellfail is getting tiresome. No one has been bullied or threatened except those constantly bullied and threatened by Leighton and Crozier, their allies in the government, and their stooges in what we laughingly refer to as 'management'.DirtyHarry wrote:My leaders ? ..................

Like all alcoholics you make excuses, I think you are the sort that are bringing RM down.Lager Chimp wrote:Don't drive so no worries there. Just simply can not afford to lose 4 days pay this time around. i'm ashamed to say it but that's how it is
Who do you think negotiated that if your banned from driving you get a cushy indoor job? RM? NO it was the CWU. Why should RM continue to employ a convicted drunk driver? what message is this sending out? I personally don't think you deserve an indoor job you should have been slung out of the job when you lost your license, you take take take....Lager Chimp wrote:I was banned from driving due to drink/drive conviction. I was forced to give up driving but just cannot give up the drink.
This is the one area that really bugs me. Lager Chimp if you are eventually sacked from RM - Who are you going to go to for help? the CWU?
and by your attitude and drinking habits your certainly heading that way.
I'm not even going to tell you to get help 'water & horse' comes to mind.
