The most effective way to deal with strikers threatening national repercussions is to emulate the action of Ronald Reagan in 1981 when he sacked thousands of striking air traffic contollers who refused to return to work, and that of Margaret Thatcher who faced up to bully-boy Scargill whose intransigence led to the destruction of the British coal industry in 1985.

You're talking out your a#$e.
Thatcher was the most divisive Prime Minister in recent history and I hope she dies a slow, painful, lonely death.
