Man in a Shed: Will this stop strike breaking ?

Will this stop strike breaking ?

Nuke Labour has a post "The Corrupt Labour Party Pays Back Unions By Screwing Businesses Hit By Strikes " - that looks on first sight very bad news indeed.

Any lawyers know if this is really the case ? This BBC post concerning a potential strike at Asda seems to confirm the worse.

I'm surprised not to have heard more about this. Have I missed it in the Telegraph ? There wasn't much on the BBC ( the link above was the best correlation I found ).

Google news has virtually nothing on this.
It looks like it needs a higher profile !

The pound in your pocket

"We used to think that you could spend your way out of a recession and increase employment by cutting taxes and boosting government spending. I tell you in all candour that that option no longer exists." James Callaghan

“The trouble with theoretical economists is that they don't understand that when you have a deficit, you can only finance it by borrowing, and you've got to persuade people that it's worth lending money to you and that they'll get their money back... there's no way of escaping it.” Dennis Healey during the 1976 Stirling Crisis.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens ... Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over-turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." John Maynard Keynes, 1920.

"To preserve [the people's] independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America,1801-1809.
