Theres a lot of rhetoric there which was nothing to do with what I was saying above, first invoking the Sindo and now the Mail, disregarding what I said about keeping to the facts or merits of the argument. You seem determined to classify and pigeon hole as a kind of substute for that.
If what you advance is valid then consider the last 40 yrs, until 2008 total union power in sectors like electricity and education. They filled their boots but there was no knock on effect to general society. They simply used their manopoly situation climbed up the social scale much like doctors and other private professionals.
There is no relationship involved with other
trade unionists, even in the public sector.
You keep referring to public sector workers as if they are homogeneous but as I mentioned many times that the ordinary workers in the public sector would not be threatened if only the most highly paid over 60k were to be under scrutiny to see if the public is getting value for money. Why should it be a considered a victory for socialism to see the promotion of the worseing pay inequality that developed over the past 40 yrs?
I do have a position on the other forms of private sector inequality that is not being discussed here but I take the view that two wrongs don’t make a right.
