Tomorrow (19 March) is the day when the result of the ballot of Siemens workers at the BBC , who are members of the union Bectu, is revealed.
This is yet another example of the risks businesses take when they hand control of the welfare of critical workers to a supplier.
Bectu members will attempt to maximise disruption if the ballot results in support for industrial action. Potential action could include a 24 hour strike.
Could you imagine if they strike for 24 hours when the BBC hosts the pre-election debates between leaders of they political parties. Looking on the bright side it could shut Brown, Clegg and Cameron up for a while.
I will be in contact with the union tomorrow.
