    Strikes are voted on and legal
    Check your history books and you will find plenty of strikes where they were not voted for but went ahead anyway-Miners strike being the most famous.
    Recent teachers strike again only a monrity voted for it but it went ahead anyway.

    Shutting the ticket office at major stations is a backward step
    I would not disagree as a customer but the figures don't back that up.

    So i wonder what happened to horse and cart manufactures then? should we have banned the motor car as they probably lost their jobs
    Bet I could come up with loads of jobs which are no longer here.
    We just roll over and take anything the management want or throw at us
    Typical union member statement! Bet these people were thankful when they gained employment.
    Now you want to bite the hand that feeds you

    Thats what the right wing gutter press keep banging on about
    We should be thankful to have a job and not even think about going on strike

    Well Les in the real world where company owners award themselves with bumper pay rises and share options its only right that the worker on the shop floor should get something

    You seem to think that workers should be seen and not heard
