I am guessing here, but I think your point is that if City Rail was a
private company then it would be strike free?

So strikes dont happen in a private Company... Geez I didnt know that Rio
Tinto, Patricks, and BHP were owned by the Public.. Those companies run by
the private sector have been involved in the worst industrial relations
disasters this country has seen for years.. Someone better go and tell the
workers they cant strike coz it is a not a government entity..

That means that the company you work for is working outside the industrial
relations laws of this country.. ANY worker in the country can take
protected industrial action... but please dont let the facts get in the way
of a bit of good old public sector/union bashing..

So now a strike that suits you is OK?  Bit of a double standard there dont
you think??
