Three Queens Liverpool 2015: rail services back to normal after unions call off planned strike - Liverpool Echo

Good, let's hope the weather holds out and all who visit Liverpool have a good time. Sadly I planned to make it but plans have been changed.

#42, Thank goodness for that. Typical usual Union fiasco:(

What did the union do wrong here ? they were negotiating with the company and ACAS, there was always the possibility that the strike would be avoided which it was.It was the train companies that put out the stories that they would not be running the trains even if strike action was called off so are they not to blame.I wonder how many people went out and bought National Express tickets in view of what the rail companies said.But once again it's the union that take the blame some people just cannot look at a situation without an unbiased view.

#44, 'What did the union do wrong here ?'...... You simply cannot be that naïve???
Answer: What the Unions always do, cause the maximum amount of chaos for every Tom, Dick & Harry ie you and me whenever there is an occasion to disrupt. If they honestly were for the people they would PLAN their strike for any old day of the week, not one on such auspicious occasion for the city of Liverpool who will benefit from all the visitors spending their well earned cash. To quote 'some people just cannot look at a situation without an unbiased view.' That remark works both ways:rolleyes:
