If we don't take action now we will lose a hell of a lot more in the long and even not so long run.

We are all backed into a corner but we either stand up and fight or face a life sentence of third world poverty pay and poverty pension(that's presuming you ever get to claim any of it as you will probably be dead long before that if :lfo and :cfo have their way).

I'm up to my eyeballs already but a couple of hundred ain't gonna make a lot of difference to the mountain I owe so I'm stickin it on the plastic sad but it's a way of life these days.

1- you can't afford NOT to strike....These executive actions are ONLY THE START of what they have in mind for us !

2 - OFFICAL INDUSTRIAL ACTION .....RM cannot operate a lockout !

3 - STAY STRONG !!!!....We WILL WIN !

The other choice you have is this, to play your part in making RM's dreams come true, which means looking forward to having unbelievably worse
working conditions, an employer who thinks you're worth the best part of nothing every time a pay rise is due , an increasingly worthless pension, oh,
and a total loss of any self respect you may have.

I'd sooner drink poison.

the choice you have is you lose a few bob now in comparison to the thousands you will be robbed of if everyone had your defeatist attiude and caved in as well as losing your selfrespect for scabbing. no choice really is there.
