All due to them being asked to retire at 62 - and not 60

They are fighting harder for their pensions than they did for their nation when the Germans came visiting!

I wonder when the gov will realise all they have to do is borrow a few tanks, paint Swastikas on them and drive through Paris.....all strikes will be offer within the day.

Got to admire them for standing up for something they don't want or believe in,just wish us Brits had similar size cahooners

It's true that we take it up the rear end ... after all we are being told we must work until 66!!!!!

But, why is it that this revolting ability didn't rear its head in WW2? They just laid down and took it!

Maybe, as said above, wheel some German Tanks down the streets of Paris - would soon get them back to work .................... it just wouldn't happen here - are we soft?

I can't be bothered to respond to such a patently stupid wind-up.

Good on them.
It's about time us Brits grew a backbone and started to do the same

Whatever age they retire, they still have to have paid their version of National Insurance for 40 years to get a full pension. That is why they are up in arms about the higher pensionable age.

I have to agree that they are not backward in standing up for their rights.

Fair play to them
