Tactics on the pensions dispute

The debate, as expected, is going on regarding the tactics the unions should take next around the pensions dispute.

There are those who advocate surrender or compromise if you want to call it that way, the others who believe that there is more to be explored with further negotiating and the few who know that if the fight does not continue this will be round one of the attacks and the government will come back later and impose ever more drastic measures. There is no evidence that they are not planning that already.

So you have Heather Wakefield explaining the logic of organised surrender, then Gregor Gall wanting more action, Mark Serowka calling for a fight to the end and Jon Rogers trying to appease all sides (by being diplomatic and nice about them on his blog) in the hope that the union machinery will have another go even if that attempt won't be as big as he wants it to be! Its clear that the only option right now is to develop strategies that mean a continuation N30 otherwise that was a waste of time?
