December strikes: 1,200 troops to cover for ambulances and Border Force

  1. Ridiculous, using the military to cover strikes is just a bandaid. It will not solve the issue at hand and is just the government trying to ignore it.

  2. I know they aren’t allowed to strike by law, but I’m pretty sure the reason is conflict and defence of the realm based. I’d love one day for the whole Armed Forces to turn around and say no, fuck off, and strike as well. They can’t stick them all in the glass house.

    Using the armed forces in this capacity should be fucking illegal. They should be there to help in emergencies- natural disasters, that kind of thing, not a ‘free’ labour replacement.

    The armed forces are too versatile for their own good.
