The minute you set a maximum (of either kind, or both) it becomes an expectation, indeed almost a minimum, and the Union will simply find some excuse(s) to strike for that number of days regardless of whether their grievances have any real merit. In that case you fine the RMT heavily and/or jail some of the leadership or even the members involved. Unions can get nasty , the establishment can get REALLY nasty if they want to. The workers will be quite happy to strike; Comrade Crow has shown them Not if they end up in prison and unemployed they won't. that militancy gets results. They have gained handsomely over the years as a result of past militancy so why would they not take action? Thats because no one has had the ******** to stand up to them. Ironically it took a woman to do just that to the miners. B2003 |
