avidcameron Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 So do our Armed Forces, look well if they came out on strike every time there is a dispute over pay ect, their wages are rubbish compared to Fire Service, the Police and the Prison Service and a load of other jobs, their job is far more dangerous plus they are used as back up to these mamby pamby Services when they chuck their dummys out of their Prams. The services cannot strike as it is treason.If they are so poorly paid why do people enlist?You do sound rather macho using terms like mamby pamby-are you ina virile occupation yourself,or simply a female admirer? ---------- Post added 28-09-2013 at 16:58 ---------- On average 60 people are killed in the UK construction industry each year compared to an average of one death in the fire service. I hope this helps. Then there are many times more working in construction-we need a per capita comparison really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's not! There are other offences within the Army Act 1955 though. Not really poorly paid either. My final salary after 22 years was about £36,000, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha! Treason! a gentle reminder, we are living in 2013 and people like Henry Eighth, Captain Bly, don't exist any more, admitted there are charges for refusing to Soldier ect, and I was saying it's very fortunate for all that the Armed Services can't go on strike or else this country would be in a real mess, so essential Services like the Fire Service and Police and Ambulance should not be allowed to just down tools especially when lives are at stake EVERY HOUR of the day.

Cyclone Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 what ?.lol.. the firemen already have a job ie. A FIREMAN.. they are well known in our traqde for working on their days off and working for peanuts, why cant they stick to their normal job ? they chose that proffesion and if the money is crap, then they should leave and do something else and stop moaning... and are they supposed to be fiddling anyway ? they dont pay tax on their sideline... just proves they cant be doing a deal at their day job, if they have the energy to do fiddle jobs aswell... what other proffesion actively works their normal job, then actively seeks regular work on the side ?? they dont have time or energy for it, firemen do.. You're free to work on your days off as well, the vast majority of people are free to take a 2nd job if they want. The rest of your post, about tax and fiddling is just speculation.

If I remember rightly 2 or more soldiers acting together against orders is classed as mutiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRESLEY Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 If I remember rightly 2 or more soldiers acting together against orders is classed as mutiny. I think they would be just charged with disobeying orders unless one off them was wearing a Manacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
