Simples, the membership voted in favour of doing something different with ESA, the 2007 agreement comitted both sides to look at doing something different and if no agreement it would be retained as grandfather rights. But as we know agreement was reached and endorsed by the mebership!

Nowt about dawn shift in either 2007 or 2010 agreement so it should have been left alone by RML, RML decided that 2010 allows them to do away with dawn shift as well, which is complete bolloks, therefore the CWU set out to reverse RM decison to scrap dawn shift allowance.

There wasn't much of a contest really when only one side of the argument was being pushed down their throats, there being no Plan B and no full disclosure to the electorate of the whole agreement.

It's for anyone who previous to "Transformation 2010" was in receipt of Dawn Shift Grandfather Rights' payment no matter what function.

I want to know why the CWU felt the need to PROTECT some members shift allowance while at the same time SACRAFICING other members shift payments ?

Is this a 2 tier union ?

All this dispite the fact that we all pay the same union dues.

Well it was suggested that there WOULD be winners and losers by a prominent poster on here - you have asked the right question though, is it 2 tier or even more? Where does the strata appear I wonder - well one is the FT/PT subscription but there are most certainly others

All this dispite the fact that we all pay the same union dues.

Because ESA WAS part of 2010 and but Dawn shift WAS NOT part of 2010.

Well thank you for asking maisy, as it happens I don't have any friends in my office, many work colleagues with whom I have a reasonable rapport, though I often get bullied and harassed :cry

As for the union glitterati, they are round my dinner table as I speak, chewing the fat, well those two are, I'm a bit on the slimmer side - one of the other union officials from the golden smoke has been on their mobiles 72 times since tea time. :hmmmm

Mind you judging from a report in the Daily Mirror, it isn't a very healthy place to live, apparently social diseases are rife in the capital .................. I didn't realise they are so friendly.
