Given the historical and close links between the CWU and the Labour Party and the announcement of a general election there is obviously not going to be any industrial action until 2020.

Then they can not claim to act on our behalf. Taking a gamble that postponing IA will help Labour wrest the controls from the Tories.? Would Labour win or would the vote be split and Magc Grampa be beaten like redheaded stepchild? Would Labour want the poisoned chalice anyway? Would it suit the Tories to drop this steaming turd into the lap of Labour and watch them f**k it up so spectacularly as to make the politburo and co unelectable for another 10 years?
