Sun, and temperature around 10C.


Great turnout at Exeter City Centre rally with just under 4000 union
folk and families/supporters on the rally with all unions represented
including mine - PROSPECTwww.prospect.org.uk. Many met Office
colleagues were with us too fighting for a fair *negotiated* pension
settlement, not a government imposed one. First strike in the Met Office
for over 30 years.

particularly with the public sector.What proportion of your lot voted to
strike ie. as a percentage of all those who could vote? What about the
human rights of those who want to work but feel intimidated by the pickets?


Yawn.
