That image of the Jaguar quite distracted me then.

I remember, the strike too well, it did set many people against each other, as did the miner's strike.

This is one of the worst dilemmas a man can face, does he back the strike and his fellow workers to get long term, better conditions, or if he has no alternative support or resources, does he work on, to put food on the table in the immediate present?. It is a horrible situation, and though I believe in trade unions, with a sensible and reasonable approach to negotiations etc.. I do not in any way condone packs of men, denigrating and threatening individuals, AND their families, for excercising the right that was won and preserved at the cost of countless lives, to do the best they could for their families.
