The wrong way to get it right

Workers that wants to affect change by trashing neighborhoods to get a better salary deal with their employers is trying to get it right by going about it in the wrong way.

The workers behavior participating in the Municipality strike is shameful and unacceptable!  The authorities should call the strike illegal and order the Trade Union in question, to pay penalties for the damages caused by the lack of discipline of their members.

These actions show a total lack of discipline and respect by those who are taking part in the strike action, and their behavior disqualify them to receive any kind of reward for demands that they may claim.

The Trade Union should be held fully responsible for any disruption, damage to personal property and trashing of orderly neighborhoods during approved strike action by any of their members.

The government authorities should further suspend any approved strike action with immediate affect of any Trade Union where members disregard the guidelines.  The government should pass law to enforce "Peaceful Strike Action Guidelines" if these are not in place yet, that includes severe penalties and that would disqualify and suspend any strike action where Unions can't or won't control their members from adherence to these  guidelines.  

If such guidelines do exist make it public so that everyone affected by the strike action know what is allowed and what is not allowed.  This will pave the way for the public to keep government accountable if they allow disorder during strike action, as is the case right now.
