    Irish_bob, no matter how much I disagree with you, your posts usually have some basis of fact, this is utter drivel, and does nothing for your credibility.

    So now we are allowed to post "a friend of a friend" , or "I know this bloke who....." bullsh*t are we?


    Is it really THAT big of a deal??? Loads of stuff posted on boards is bullshit, don't let it bother you!!!!

    Any official word on whether this strike is going ahead or not? I'm always left out of the loop, not being in a union will do that to ya!!

    It says 'suspended'. They haven't come to any final agreements yet. The 'yes' on the strike is suspended until about 21.00 tonight and then they will say 'yes' or 'no' to the strike for definite

    oh that's good then.

    Cowen has effectively shown the PS Unions that striking works and they will now threaten this every time any form of cuts are suggested.

    how now is the government going to save any money?
