Job Losses At The Club

[Neil Hawkes]

Unions aren't to blame, so much as some of the jumped up dipsticks who have forgotten what the bloody thing is there for - to be the voice of the workforce and negotiate the best terms and conditions with the management, therefore developing a productive and profitable solution for all employees.
Unfortunately most of what you see from union missives is "NO" - not the best way to conduct negotiations with your employer and wage payer, this is what appeared to decimate most of the large UK industries at various stages of development.

The union where I work are a fucking nightmare.

In what way? They do not look after the worker or they're interfering with the company to the detriment of all.

As A ex b/l worker .The union should only be as strong as the workforce wont it to be .When i first started a b/l in the 70s and works committe people were going round selling the morning star and calling everyone brother .I soon told him to do one .Some of the stewards were more intrested what was happening in other countries .Than doing the job of representing the people who paid their dues
