Thank you wildcats!!!
I think if some kind of agreement wasnt reached friday, we all would of followed your example and im pretty sure the unofficial action would have spread nationwide!! I not sure how they can reach an acceptable agreement, but we ll have to wait for the details, but a major part of it better be that all ongoing reprisals against union officials and workers over strike related incidents must dropped if this is not the case then their can be no deal, simple as that
WE are the union!!! Thank you wildcats!!!

Re: Thank you wildcats!!!
I'm pretty sure that's why an 'agreement' was reached - to stop it spreading. Liverpool are doing a fine job staying out, some half-baked shitty deal shouldn't stop the rest of the country from supporting in them in the only way that means anything.weetrogg wrote:I think if some kind of agreement wasnt reached friday, we all would of followed your example and im pretty sure the unofficial action would have spread nationwide!!

My branch secretary told us that the National deal protects anyone involved in unofficial action on their return to work.
I know i speak for everyone in our office Welwyn Garden City and take our hats off to you lads and lassies that are out or were out that i am sure pushed both sides further towards an agreement.
Its easy for people to spout about their principles its a damn lot harder doing something about them!!

i would like to show my thanks to the Liverpool, London and Scottish lads and lasses who took unofficial action. i have no doubt in my mind that your brave action concentrated the minds of RM management and the Government and although there must be something in the deal for RM they now know we wont lay down without a fight.
