Vince Cable probably didn’t expect to get rapturous applause at the GMB
conference this week. He had come to conference with a very clear
intention, to make a veiled threat to the leaders of the GMB and
indirectly UNISON, UNITE, PCS, the NUT, UCU and the NASUWT amongst
others.

After a consultative ballot of cabin-crew representatives, Unite have
decided to recommend BA’s latest offer, and try to bring an end to a
dispute that has been rumbling on since 2009. During the past 18 months,
in ballot after ballot, cabin crew have shown their determination to
defend their terms and conditions, not to mention passenger safety.
However, the union leadership has, to say the least, failed to show the
same determination, leading to a compromise which sells many staff
short.

The controversial Postal Services Bill has passed through the House of
Commons and is now with the House of lords. If it comes into law, this
Bill would open the door for privatisation of the Royal Mail. The Tory
led coalition is pushing this measure through despite a YouGov poll from
last August showing that privatisation only has the support of 15% of
the British people.
