Taking the Bull by the Horns
A number of readers have been in touch to ask why the unions are so hateful towards Stefan Cross?
Well the answer to that is very simple.
Action 4 Equality and Stefan Cross have shown the trade unions up - made them look lazy and flatfooted - too cosy by far with the employers - more interested in party politics than the 'bread and butter' issues of concern to ordinary members.
As the interview with the Guardian shows - see post dated 2 May 2010 - clients of Stefan Cross are delighted that he came along and took the bull by the horns on equal pay.
Because no one else did - and if people had been relying on the trade unions or the employers to do the job - they'd have ended up with precisely nothing.
So, we can live with the fact that some senior council bosses - and a few trade union bigwigs have their noses out of joint.
Because they don't speak for the thousands of low paid women workers who've been losing out on equal pay for all these years .
