Anyone remember the days when the unions were united? When general strikes and support for fellow unionists was common, when the leaders of the unions were ordinary and down to earth?
Sounds like the 80's when I was growing up and the media was near constant anti union.
Sorry Daz could you point me in the direction of the pro union media??
Nope tried and tried but couldn't recall the general strikes of the 1980's can you clarify Big Doz?

For the record, posties wont be subject to a pay freeze because they are independant from Govt, and RM is self-financing (dont laugh). The BBC is also expempt.
