Why call it two days

Post by shadow »

Why do the news and papers say two days of strike when each person is only taking one day of action. It makes the strikes sound worse than they are. The news have just said a further three days action next week which will make it five. This is bol*ox.

Just makes you wonder who is feeding this bull to the media.

The BBC in our area have been running with stories today that are over a week old as if it is breaking news.

In theory it is 2 days just spread out between different functions for maximum impact. It is annoying trying to explain this to the clueless public though that believe any news they read or watch ont tele.
