I'm in no way a political person, somewhat woolly liberal in views & ca la vie, in attitude.
Being a Postie I'm now in the middle of a union/management struggle, & it's not pretty.
I managed to see most of Prime Ministers Question Time, today, the last before recess.
Brown was asked, by a Labour MP, would he get the management to talk to CWU in order to resolve the strike over, pay & conditions.
Basically Brown said that he wouldn't because of inflation, blah blah blah.
The fact that this ISN'T about pay we've been offered 2.5% & if that was it, to my knowledge, we would be more than happy.
Surely there must be some middle ground, god forbid we go back to the 70's but nevertheless a working man should get some support from the powers at be.
No wonder the Tory's don't have a cat in hell's chance of ever reaching high office, because they are already there.
