saving our jobs

Amanda's excellent contribution shows the ultra-left up for what they really are-utterly incompetent and incapable of leading a Trade union in the 21st Century.

At last we have a voice of integrity and reason.I would urge you to reconsider your decision to resign Amanda because without representatives as dedicated to fighting for the very principle of public service itself with no ulterior party-political motives,this union is in real danger of falling apart at the seams.
It is quite obvious to anyone with a modicum of common sense that all the leftist rhetoric about "right wing plots" is absolute nonsense.
The decision to commence the latest pay dispute with an all out strike was not some clever conspiracy to ensure it didn't happen,but was a result of the decision made at the special conference called for by members-the loudest noises calling for this conference having ironically been made by tfc.
We need principled individuals fully committed to fighting for our jobs-not ideologues who put party politics before their members interests or even the truth.
