You got me there.
Actually I made a few million from dodgy PPP contracts, just a bit upset I should have made a few hundred million.
Your money in their pocket.
Looks like we have yet another mystery employee on the forum.
and if everyone is in a strong union, then costs spiral upwards, totally out of control.

The unions did a wonderful job of securing high wages and good working conditions for all the coal miners and car factory workers in the 1970s and 1980s.
...for about five minutes until the industry was decimated due to the massive costs of the pay, awkwardness and strikes.
Unions often make people poor.

In Slough where I grew up and lived most of my life, Mars confectionery were one of the largest employers in the area and certainly up until the late 70's, there was no trade union presence at all. They weren't prohibited as such, but if unionisation was mentioned, and it was, management would point out they would be happy to pay the going manufacturing rates of pay and benefits achieved in unionised companies. I knew several people who worked there, all took early retirement on a decent pension.
Probably very different now, a large chunk of the manufacturing shifted to mainland Europe but they still have a presence in Slough.

Just one of the ploys used.
I dare say you have not worked in one of the countries where worker representation is valued.
Incompetent management makes companies fail.

It is unions that have done more for working people than politicians ever have.
A union that has been hijacked by Marxist revolutionaries no longer represents its members.
Have a look at this company. They recognise and work with unions. Do you notice anything familiar about them?
They have not collapsed.
Given the title why was that allowed to happen under the watch of the EU.?
Is it because, contrary to your fantasy, each country is free to do as it pleases except in those matters where they have collectively agreed on a united policy?
