COUNCIL STRIKE

I visited the County Hall picket lines yesterday morning at 7.15am to demonstrate my support for the industrial action. I then went to the Rally later that morning and was delighted to find around 400 union members there. All in all the action seemed to be pretty solid across the Island and shows that solidarity is the only way to beat intransigence and unreasonableness. And there may need to be plenty of that solidarity in the coming months.

Most ridiculous comment of the year so far from the double-barrelled Tory baronet that leads the intransigent Local Government Association, "The vast majority of Council services across England have not been affected by this strike action." Yeah - and pigs DO fly Mr Bruce-Lockhart.
