I couldn't have put it better myself linkin - the sad thing is those same people will be the PEC of the future and if they think this is the way to run a union - then God help us all.linkinpark wrote:You know what i think most people have NO idea about what a Union is, what they were formed for And about what they should achieve?

The way they at HQ will acheive this is to waste ALL we gave them to get what we want, waste the best time of the year to get it and then give us a simple yes or no with no alternative! Sc*b HQ have won again! The real question for me is not how HQ will sell us out this time but how we can avoid this in the future!
