reason for strike[edit]

I get the impression that the reason for striking has been omitted, but that has to be the most important piece of information Johncmullen1960 (talk) 11:37, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merging with other articles?[edit]

This article relates to the 30 November strike only. It was a major event involving 2 million public sector/service workers and deserves its own article.WhiteAct (talk) 10:43, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Def. important enough for a stand alone. Needs expansion with reactions from the jokers in power right now, union leaders, etc. Plenty of detail on the BBC site and other news outlets too. Nice work on starting it in the first place. Lugnuts (talk) 11:29, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly! The silence is deafening. Maybe they are all still down at the pub. :) WhiteAct (talk) 20:49, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Lugnuts (talk) 13:26, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you also. I am sure the 2 million odd workers can add to this also! It would the be the biggest article on Wikipedia maybe. :) Come on, guys. WhiteAct (talk) 20:48, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2 sources IDK if they are related[edit]
