Strike!

Indeed. You're never obliged to put up with that behaviour, even if there is an explanation
 
Bit of a bump but there is a week of action coming in October.

What I want to check is, would there be unison members working in a GP surgery? I'm thinking non-medical staff like receptionists.

I've got an appointment booked for strike day and if I don't change it soon I won't get another.
 
In local government, Unite and GMB are looking to bottle it and agree to the latest shit offer. Unison saying strike goes ahead.
 
I'll still be out tomorrow. PCS reps were heavily leafletting the entrances yesterday morning and this morning. It was a local-focussed leaflet from the branch, not from national PCS, and it wasn't a bad one. I've heard more members say they'll be out than not, but there'll be some non-members in. I'm more confident those'll be a smallish minority of the total than I was the other day, though :)

The TUC demo today was according to media reports nearly 100'00 large, so could have been even more
I would be surprised, I went, don't wanna piss on anyone's bonfire but it didn't look that big to me unless they mean all the marches combined? Was surprised how few people there were tbh considering was basically all unions, or I am bad at estimating, considering I have done a lot of club etc capacity I don't think so. But good atmosphere.

Oh if you mean 10,000 yeah would be about right. Saw a report of 80-90,000 somewhere, that would surprise me. Maybe I was naive to expect bigger.
 
Latest number I've heard is 50k - which considering the estimated 500k who marched for (The Alternative) on March 26th 2011 is a woeful turnout, not helped by the fact though, people are fucking skint!
