A fair Salary

...even though they earn £30k...

Fought for and won by the actions of strong trade unions.
And why shouldnt they earn that kind of money? My only regret is that
not
every one is on that figure, still plenty of work for us trade unionists
to
do there i think.

Go see how much money nurses make, then tell me that's a fair wage.
Jesus Christ, man - just because you can get paid that much does not make
it right. I've seen inept people get really high salaries - that does
not automatically entitle everyone to such a wage.

I agree with you about nurses, they do not get a fair wage. If i was able
to assist them by takeing industrial action i would. I do attend marches
and demonstrations like the fire fighters march, and going further back,
the miners. My union branch contributes money to campaigns such as these
both from branch funds and from collections at the meetings. Ordinary
people doing what they can with monetary and moral support.

Yeah! The Nurses could just close the hospitals until they got what they
wanted out of the bosses, via the patients. Bob Crow eat your heart out!
Anyone who provides a public service, and stops providing that service
because of grievances with management, is acting selfishly. Just because
you can do something doesn't make it right. And just because something is
your "last hope" also doesn't make it right. It doesn't matter how many
times you've been bitch-slapped, bitch-slapping an innocent can never make
up for it.

Hope to see you at these events in the future.

If the RMT is a demonstration of how modern unions work, I seriously doubt
it.
