- danieltillett 10y agoNot much of win there in 2003. I did say in my OP the film and TV industry, not stage and theatre. There have been quite a number of theatre strikes by various unions over the years. Everyone working together in person seems to make for a more militant environment - or maybe theatre producers are just worse employers.
- akjainaj 10y agoThat's simply not true. In fact if they never strike it's because their union is powerful and can always get what they want without needing to go on strike.
- danieltillett 10y agoDo you know of a powerful union that has never gone on strike?
