My understanding is that we have to give 7 days notice and as we have not we are not on strike.
The CWU are supposed to be presenting RM with proposals this week and when they are rejected will name strike dates.

What a waste of time,RM are just stalling for time they know what they are doing do we?We need to hit them hard where it hurts and carry on until we get a resonable outcome.I say this because as we all know you never get everthing you want in life. :so there :so there :so there

we had the area union reps round today, they said we should know what action will be taken at the end of the week, it may be 1 hour a day strikes.

Belial. Please tell me how you get everything you want in life. I am old and I have done almost all I wanted to do. Some times I wish I had done everything.
