I think it will be interesting to see if the union can actually make any progress on pay/conditions...

that's a common doubt we all have - union jobs definitely pay more than non union jobs for same level and business area

I sort of hope it works out. I think anyone working for a living gets ripped off (we pay all the taxes and get none of the benefits).

That said, I doubt the causation between unions and pay etc.

I hope these guys get rewarded for all their efforts.
