Following the day of action on the 30th November 2011, I would like to place on record my thanks and appreciation to all the Reps. and members who made the day a success. It was great to see so many people on the picket lines, which ensured the public got the message that members are unhappy with the Government's proposals on pensions. The way in which staff conducted themselves throughout the day was superb.
I would particularly like to thank those Senior Reps. who remained on duty for the whole of the 24 hours, answering queries from members and challenging Managers when necessary. Without them the day would not have been such a success. I am not aware of any other Branch that had the quality of support from their Senior Reps. on the day, as the WMAS Reps. gave their members.
Regards,
Ray Salmon.
