You're the one who is always harking back to past glories of the CWU. I would fight anyday BUT I want to know precisely the reasons for the fight and how I would stand to gain by any industrial action - and this time it would need to be a plus.

if or when RM gets privatised , we have to have a strong Union once all is done and dusted.
for all its faults past and present , the Union is all the working man has at its disposal. the only way to get representation and concessions in the future because lets face it thats all we can hope for, is to be members of a Union. if we just meekly roll over that Union will be confined to the history books. ever had a fight ? you lost but you broke the bullies nose with your one and only good shot. he will think twice about fighting you again.
there is no soapbox here but believe me if you thought it was bad now you aint seen nothing yet. this is class war :dcfo
"why should it just be the bankers, politicians and the idle rich who get all the best things ? we demand a standard of living for our members that enables them to share in the fine wines and times that the likes of Cameron and his Eton buddies take for granted " - the late great Bob Crow RIP.
