The NUT - Truly Nutty (but thanks for the day off school)

Well, tomorrow, Thursday 24 April 2008, I will not be going to school. That is a happy truth. The reason behind it is that the NUT (National Union of Teachers) are going on strike.

But why is this Trade Union going on strike?

My brother's form tutor is a member of NUT, and she says something to the effect of:

"Those in the NUT not striking should be ashamed of themselves for not doing so"before adding, "We have no reason to strike, but the NUT have called a strike, so I'm going on strike!"

Hmm. . .

None of my teachers went on strike.
