Think about it people!!!

The government stepped in,...ALL OF A SUDDEN,...AT THIS MOMENT!!!

As though there was something pressing,...and that this strike MUST BE RESOLVED NOW!!!

Even though for the last year,...they've been telling us:"That's between a company and it's employees,...it is none of our business!!!"

Something sinister is cooking!!!

This strike has to end NOW,...for some reason!?!?!




"What happens,...if it doesn't Dalton???"

It got resolved because of the brothers and sisters protests at Clarabelle and Coleman.The pressure and embarrassment put on the government was huge.Plain and simple...Well done men.

Perhaps it was Vale and their "time" to settle. All the other "non participatory" parties now step in to claim credit where none is due.

All the by standers stepping forward claiming "we won" when in reality they did nothing.

Only Vale makes the choice to settle, no one else. Our vote to accept is completely relative to what Vale gives to vote on.

When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer in graft and by pull than work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you, when you see corruption rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed.

One thing to also keep in mind, as of July 13, we have been off for 1 year, so if we return after the 13th there is a whole new dimension added to retraining people to meet government regulation, this will add a huge expense to vile.
We return prior to the 13th,retraining costs are reduced.

I think they are going to demolish a couple more buildings and start another war some were.

I believe they want this strike out of the front page news when they open up the can of worms on the 25 "SECRET" meeting conducted between the different ministries and the prime minister.

This may well happen when they resit. Give a little cooling off time once this strike gets tucked away before they have to submit.

I still want to see which one of these meetings determined the risk of our DB pension deficit when Vale went in to apply for an extension on the debt balance, uping it from the legislated 5 years to ???????????????. That was just over a year ago and the pension deficit was at 750,000 then. They probably cited tough economic times and INCOleft us in a lurch, can you up this another five years?

The outcome was never published, just that the meetings were taking place.

That is a defining timeline we all need to know.
