I do indeed agree with the one day rolling strikes and think its the best plan of attack,but your point is a valued one and needs to be taken in to account when the dates are set for industrial action,i've got no doubt someone on here has already pointed this matter out to cwu headquarters,but perhaps someone with closer contacts could have a word :roll:

This point has also been raised in another thread in the News Section :cool

It's amazing how the MC got all the mail to us by 6.15am this morning, we're usually waiting until 7.30, sometimes after 8.
