You have not really justified your point here as "Tory Meltdown Incoming" is a statement and "Will the Unions bring everyone to their knees?" is clearly a question, and the answer is not clearly no they won't, because they could.
Its only the start from the Unions, surely you agree with that?
Hotels, pubs, and restaurants for example have been smashed to kingdom come by the lockdown, and the RMT cut their lifeblood off again as they scrambled from their knees to stand upright. So if the RMT and other Unions keep disrupting our economy, it could theoretically bring us to our knees.
There was NO thread on a National Daily News item, it surely needed discussing, in an open way, it really isn't my fault if people think after giving my views that I should change my mind to their view.
I have seen all they have to say and I stand in defence it is the wrong time to be beating the country with a heavy stick, and personally 85% of the time there just are not justified in striking.
It still amazes me that I am expected to accept others' theories and points of view yet, the same people can not except mine, they just throw insults.
Yet you let it happen.
Anyway, I'm off this subject to watch a sport we can all agree on F1.

Massive real terms pay cut for NHS workers. Do we need to clap again?
It's been on the news all day that the 'Public Sector' workers will be getting around 5%, and I have already had someone say to me that I'm getting 5% so should be relatively 'happy'. But Local Government Staff are not part of this deal, we're getting 1.75%. I do wish the media would be more careful in their reporting - LG staff are still 'Public Sector'

The plan I outlined is fully 2016 referendum compliant, and has the advantage of not requiring another one - which is wonderful as the last thing we need are more referendums.
All sovereignty and "rule taker" lies have already been fully debunked on NSC before. The plan is fully thought through - any compromises on trade are no different to any that are made in making trade deals.
I can't sell the plan to the nation on NSC. I have no statecraft at my disposal to push it forward. In my 20s it could have been a lifetime plan to push it through, sadly I've not got enough years left now to get to such a position of influence.
Anyway, it is a plan, it works, it improves British lives universally. To me it is obvious. I only have criticism for any Government that doesn't see it.
The council I work for originally budgeted for 2% this year and are now assuming a possible 3% or 4%.It's been on the news all day that the 'Public Sector' workers will be getting around 5%, and I have already had someone say to me that I'm getting 5% so should be relatively 'happy'.

I never used to like it….but then Sir Lewis Hamilton came along. Not only an exciting and winning driver way out on his own when it comes to success but a humble gentleman from a modest background; a true ambassador for the sport and the U.K.
Wrong topic HT.
David Mellor has just quoted "silly wages, silly economy".
He has given a very true analysis here, hasn't he
I have yet to speak to anybody in the private sector with a rise of over 4%.
So the public sector are yet again going to get the cream, should they have been given a 5% rise

By "get the cream" in reference to a 5% payrise, you actually mean "marginally less of a real terms paycut"?
For the record, I work in the public sector and might get 3% if I'm lucky.

Doesn't surprise me.Ex who works in Civil Service has just been told they’re getting 2%, so a further real terms pay cut of 7%.
I have yet to speak to anybody in the private sector with a rise of over 4%.

To add, for many including myself, these 5-7% real term pay cuts follow on from real term pay cuts of between 20 and 25% over the past 12 years. And yet the anti-worker ideology insists that we're 'getting the cream'.
