The Sin Bin • Railway strikes
This is an interesting dispute and comrade Lynch is a breath of fresh air.
The unions make one good point - the share of profits is out of kilter - you cannot have huge profits and shareholder distribution and then say we can't pay the workers more money.
On the other hand you can't have no compulsary redundancies - effectively saying all workers have a job for life even if that role has been modernised out - that show the union in bad light and gives Boris and his mates ammunition against Labour and their close connection with the unions.
Boris needs a summer of union strikes - it will distract from all his other behavioural mistakes.
