I fully agree with the strike action Stu. Really crap how they are trying to treat you.

Mum has been a public sector worker since before i was born so is set to loose out massivly!
She has worked up from the bottom as a cleaner and is now a senior manager in education for hampshire.
She has already had 3 offers of redundancy but refuses to take them. Being 54 job opptunities won't be flying out for her.
