mindfieldz Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I'm happy for someone to tell me I'm talking crap here if I am talking crap, but its seems to me that the benefits that working people enjoy in this country that came about because of the unions is actually quite limited... the majority of work places and working people are not unionised so how can unions claim credit for the working conditions of said work places/workers?? Isn't it actually Britains membership of the EEC/EU that has raised the standards of working conditions in this country? This is how I see it. come at me.

mindfieldz Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 My working life hasn’t been improved by union activity. My workplace isn't unionised and I have days off, payed holidays etc etc, its something I just take for granted I suppose, but do I need to be thankful for the unions and the Labour party for this?

No, you should thank your employer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeX Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Public sector unions are so greedy these days it makes the rest of us hate them, like the London bus drivers union demanding a premium payment for working over the Olympics because they will be taking so many more passengers. Forgive me if I am wrong, but buses are limited to how many passengers they can carry, so they will not be carrying any more passengers in any case. money ... grabbing .... ####### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
