[QUOTE="Kurt, post: 458814, member: 27355"] Think there is a little romance thinking here about the "good old days, when we had unions" I lived and worked through the Thatcher period, miners strike, unions etc and quite frankly the unions were a collection of arrogant bullies who carrotted on the members and intimidated any dissenters (sound familiar to the Corbyn fan base?). 5WW has nothing to do with unions, there is no unions involved with either my gas qualifications or Fgas qualifications yet there does not appear to be a massive dilution of the trade in those disciplines. Basically you have to deal with the image of the trade that any muppet can get something lit up and if it all goes titsup there's good old ADS to save the day. [/QUOTE]
