Well, it looks like PCS has got all its comrades back off holiday now, and has rearranged the strike that was originally scheduled for 13 September. It is now due to take place on 21 September 2012.<\/p>\n
The DSA has sent out an alert.<\/p>\n
Candidates are urged to attend as normal, since not all examiners are members of the union – and of those stupid enough to be so, not all of them are that<\/strong> stupid that they<\/strong> participate in strike action.<\/p>\n Questions used to find the blog:<\/p>\n I\u2019ve got a test that day. Why can\u2019t the DSA just tell me whether they\u2019re working or not?<\/strong><\/p>\n Look, the whole point of strikes is to cause problems in order to try and get your own childish way. The DSA is NOT calling the strike – PCS (the fossil union) is. Any blame for disruption lies entirely with the union.<\/p>\n The DSA does not know which examiners will be out on strike. The alerts they send out explain that clearly, and it is shocking that driving instructors are still incapable of understanding this simple fact even after so many strikes in the last couple of years alone. If the DSA automatically cancelled ALL tests for that day, the disruption would be thousands of times worse. All they can do is ask you to turn up.<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t like it, take it up with PCS and the government. It isn\u2019t the DSA\u2019s fault in any way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well, it looks like PCS has got all its comrades back off holiday now, and has rearranged the strike that was originally scheduled for 13 September.
