PLEASE PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION

I ask you all to please support this petition
this is about the strike of AMCU
this strike is having devastating effects in our area and it also is hurting the economy
the fact is that most mine workers DO NOT WANT TO STRIKE but if they go to work when they return to home their families was vitimized and house burned down
A lot of the mine workers want to leave the union AMCU but they are intimidated
also their are families from contract workers who do not receive any pay and has no income what so ever
sub contractors do not get work nor are their outstanding invoices paid
so I beg you please sign this maybe it will make a difference
and please think of the families in your prayers, what ever religion you are part of
thank you in advance

thank you Craig.
It is all about money for them
the more members they have the more money they have
what happened is that in order for the mine workers to join their union AMCU made unrealistic promises and now they must produce or the mine workers will leave them and therefore they will lose their monthly membership
but AMCU has "enforcers"and as soon as they hear talk from workers to change their union they move in and start intimidating them
the government will do nothing now they are scared to act because that can cost them more votes as their are already a negative perception in this side of the world towards the ANC
They could have employed SAP and army to protect persons who want to work but they don't have the courage to do that, they will rather let AMCU hurt the whole country than to lose votes, it is so sick

Signed..........it's terrible this situation

It is sad because the FAT CATS OF AMCU who make the workers strike
Are well fed . Their families don't have to go hungry while the poor
Continue to starve . Their is no justice in this world .

Signed. I have heard tragic tales regarding the impact this is having.

IMHO trade unions here are an absolute waste of time for workers. They are only interested in membership paying their fees and that's it. Mine have just joined the SA Transport and allied workers union??????:S What have they got to do with transport or how are they allied to them? Just to get extra members paying and am sure the union representative and shop stewards get a kick back per member signed. We need Maggie Thatcher here. Government too scared to sort them out for the damage they do to the economy as they are only worried about being re elected to carry on with the huge gravy train here!:X

signed.............problem in SA is that we have a strike culture, and no logic behind demands vs time off work :S

Signed.
Greed has no bounds
For me being on the road every day,seeing people beg for money,clothes,work etc. it's sickening
Then people ask you; "Why are you so against this goverment?"

Let me tell you,they feel nothing for their people!

If they don't step in and stop it, they support it!(td)
