Perhaps that is also linked with why UNISON membership is falling? People will link to an organisation that campaigns with them, treats them with some respect,is relevant to their needs and has some vestiges of transparent democracy? It seeks to cut across divides whilst UNISON seems to be manufacturing divides by invoking silly rules to keep union members apart. In a world that is falling apart UNISON seems to be leading the way in its dissolution at times, always hoping that a juicy bone wil be thrown its way but dining in the end only on sops. Bizarre.Sorry for being so down.<br>katAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
