Prison Officers Strike

It's just been reported on the radio that the prison officers who worked during the strike this week are to receive a £500 bonus.

On one hand we have Mr Brown spouting that the money is not there to give these underpaid guardians an equitable pay rise, and on the other we have this wonderful 'new labour' government rewarding strike breakers.

Has this government forgotten its roots? As a working man maybe its time for me to re-evaluate my voting roots.

Re: Prison Officers Strike

Brown is asking for more trouble - I think we may be heading for another 'winter of discontent' - followed by an election which he might well lose :eek:
