Disappointments

Life is full of disappointments, Ms Ruane is "Disappointed" classroom assistants are returning to strike action.

Classroom Assistants are "Disappointed" Ms Ruane has done nothing to end this dispute. They are "Disappointed" that management have treated them with contempt for 12 years. NIPSA members are "Disappointed" with the lack of support from so called brother and sister unions (Proving the point you can chose your friends but not your family) So Ms Ruane doesn't have a monopoly on "Disappointment". How can we bring an end to this widespread disappointment?
If management were serious about solving this issue they would address the route causes of the dispute, not this "Smokescreen" offer that does nothing to address the issues that NIPSA had 93% mandate for strike action on.
I'm sure management, Ms Ruane, and all will continue to be disappointed that NIPSA isn't going to lay down and die on this one.
