Unions need a dose of financial reality

THE silly season has arrived, and already I have a strong feeling that I must have a hearing test carried out, because clearly I am hearing things that cannot possibly be true.

For example, I thought I heard last week that the GRA were looking for another 6 days annual leave to compensate for pay cuts.

Today I thought I heard that the CPSU have voted unanimously for strike action in the event of a pay cut.
