We were out for three weeks in 1988 and didn't get anything. The local Trade Union and Unemployed Workers centre took a few test cases to the DSS, but they assume unions will pay strike pay, so the people concerned got nothing from them. You're right to mention the cash Labour are getting for screwing us over, but I doubt the £400,000 the CWU insist on throwing to the scum would go far between 130,000 strikers though.

Dave Ward gets paid while we are on strike because he is probably working his arse off to get us a decent deal while we are doing our bit to pressurise RM from our end - he is doing what he is paid to do and it isn't a job I would like - poppapump, you are like lots of people I know - if it isn't exactly what YOU want it isn't good enough - if you want to talk like a prat - learn english and do it properly.IWW Fellow Worker wrote:Where have I stood up for them?
