The terms laid out to them are clear and written in their employment contract. These are teachers, council workers, people who AS PART OF THEIR JOB, serve the public. By striking they are refusing to fufil their duties thus should be eligible for disciplinary procedures. I mean what the heck, teachers get 8-10 weeks holiday, most rock up at 8:30 and go home at 4, are paid £25k or so a year (so more than the average salary, I know some teachers on £30k+ after a couple of years) for saying the same thing 4 or 5 times a day to different groups of pepole at different levels based on their age.. They learn one thing and then spend all day sharing their knowledge...it's not a "hard" job. Childrens education is more important than ever and they are more worried about their precious money and closing schools because they're selfish.
Now I get a day short of 3 weeks holiday, nowhere near £25k and do 9-5:30!! And I'm more qualified than my IT teacher was at school...so..go figure. So many people in the private sector are paid less than those in public and yet we don't moan and complain and strike..
Now I'm not saying they are not allowed to strike. They are, but pick suitable times to do it. Everyone is having to cut back and frankly they have it the best out of anyone; ample holiday, good pay, etc.
I'm saying that their selfishness is second to none at this point. We in the private sector partially pay their wages with our NI contributions and taxes. Yes, they likely pay taxes too and thus contribute to each others wages but there are more in the private sector paying high tax than there are in the public..
