Hotting Up November 28, 2006
Posted by Brian in : Single Status, Uncategorized , trackbackIt seems the debate on single status is hotting up.
Members of staff who work for Glasgow Council will begin strike action next week whilst union members in Falkirk are being balloted for strike action on the 18th December, the day that their new contracts must be signed by.
Further South in Staffordshire staff are so incensed about their pay cuts that they have started their own website called ”save our salary”. You can visit it by clicking here.
One thing that caught my eye on the “save our salary” site was the fact that they have started an e-petition.
I was amazed to find out that on the Downing Street website an electronic petition can bet set up and electronically signed. All you need do is put in your email address, your home address and then click the “sign” button at the bottom of the page and your “signature” of the petition is electronically recorded.
I think its a great way of using new media to engage with the electors.
You can sign the save our salary e-petition here
