It doesn't really matter who it is about, though I would admit that drivers with their reputed £50k a year are an easy target.
Truck drivers got huge wage rises last year, and to a lesser extent so did bus drivers, but they did not have to go on strike for that. They got those rises because that is what the employers had to pay to get the staff, and good luck to them. That is how the market works, it works both ways.
What is not reasonable is to inconvenience millions of people to try and lever up ones wages, particularly when :
1 - The vast majority of people cannot do that.
2 - The taxpayer is indirectly subsidising those wages.
Inflation rate since 1986 = 169%
I was on £5500 p.a. in 1986 x 169% = £14,795 p.a
Current minimum wage at 40 hrs a week = £19,760 p.a.
That is not peanuts.
Actually I was wrong, the minimum wage is 33% higher than I was on back in 1986, not 25% !
