Of course, that is your opinion. I am sure others have formed a similar opinion based on the few internal briefings which have been leaked.
Nonetheless, Unite has stated the strike is due to a ‘derisory pay offer’. The strike doesn’t really take into account how employees feel about directors of the company, and means the dispute itself is (or should be) about pay and pay only.
I am good friends with plenty of drivers who openly admit they are content with the offer, don’t particularly care about any of the mutual combative communications between the company and Unite, and are only on strike because they are following the recommendations of the Union, so in the meantime are ‘enjoying an extended holiday’ because they don’t have to even go to the picket line during the week to be eligible for strike pay.
One would suggest that furlough during the Covid-19 pandemic has a lot to answer for!
