In other countries when these bus operators goes on strike, persons are in line waiting to take their jobs. Get rid of them, they are smashing the country.

What makes these snowflakes so special? It is an unlawful withholding of labor, and no work, no pay. There is no downside as a general strike wouldn’t last more than a week since the BIU has no money to pay its members, and Bermuda is already experiencing what is effectively an unofficial strike.

Maybe out of the taxes taken from the private sector who are forced to send their staff home without pay ? Tell that to the Resturants staff who aren’t getting paid !

In addition to hurting themselves, they are hurting the public who rely on the transportation system.

The Government’s position stands. The Government cannot justify paying when the Division does not comply with the law.”

Does that mean everyone should get paid by the PLP Government for breaking the law?
