If you know anyone who was in favour of the recent strikes against Italian workers, have them read this.

The union are UNITE, by the way, who are notorious for striking.

They apparently used a variety of underhanded tactics, and debatable claims while the Grangemouth claim was ongoing to undermine the position of the oil companies, and ultimately got the payout they wanted. I don't trust them.

I have to be careful what I say, but regarding a union at my work (which may or may not be the same one) My boss is heavily involved in our negotiations - I believe that when you add up everything in their recent wage claim, factoring in breaks, holidays etc, they are asking for a 31% pay raise for workers who are already seriously overpaid.
