Benefits for striking low-paid workers to be axed

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-18476504

absolute shocking piece criminal act by the parasites in power. No wonder human rights is wanted to be teared up by these yobs in suits.

Are we now effectively have oppresive regime no different to those we condemn.

We defacto now moving very close in state where fear to speak and stand up against what we believe is wrong. Especially with the spying rubbish planned.

Whats next in line snatch squads who raises there voice against oppresive regime. We seem to be excelerating to turn us into 1930's germany or 1950 eastern bloc.

Why should someone on £13,000 a year be able to go on strike and lose no money?

Re: Benefits for striking low-paid workers to be axed

Striking should be a measure of last resort in a dispute with an employer. Just as the employer has hardship by having no staff so looses business, so should those on strike suffer hardship. That encourages both sides back to the negotiating table as both are incentivised.

Frankly I'm gobsmacked to realise that those on strike weren't getting hit in the pocket. To find that the taxpayer is effectively subsidising strikes is just wrong. I had always thought unions had strike funds which were paying our something back to their authorised strikers. To realise that it's easy for people to strike knowing that they have little financial risk is all wrong.

Half of what you have just posted is pure rantings of a person who hates the latest Government, I don't think you would be posting half of this rubbish if the Government was Labour. I did not see you posting when they destroyed this country with there stupid spend spend spend policies or there sending young men in to a war on a lie, Where were you then ??????

All i see in your posts is a massive anti Tory bias with very little proof to back up your claims. You have been pulled many times for you inaccurate quoting and ranting to the point where i don't believe a word you post any more.

So you think striking should be privilage to those who on significant funds that require no tax credits. What selfish atitude you have.

It should be every workers right if they been treated badly by owners to ballot and strike.

Now admit some strikes seem stupid those need eradicating but surely when there clear issue that right should not effect losing those benefits which would effect losing there home.

So many heartless tory yobs on this forum it seems.

What now to stop a company pay many more on low minimum wage knowing they wont strike.

Re: Benefits for striking low-paid workers to be axed

Nope, don't get it - why should people get benefits while not working through their own choice?

Re: Benefits for striking low-paid workers to be axed

As far as i was aware strikers are not entitled to any other benefits which is where the strike fund operated by some unions comes in (example; the miners strike)also being on strike is a voluntary act in the same category of leaving a job voluntarily which would also remove entitlement to benefits
