It makes you wonder who is advising the PCS union.
As a PR event, disrupting the Olympics to draw attention to their cause is likely to backfire badly.
Assuming the strike goes ahead and the Olympics are disrupted, the loss of public sympathy would be profound. And not just for the PCS union but for the trade union movement as a whole. Which would allow the government carte blanche to attack the trade unions with impunity.
