A stiff lesson in trade unionism says…
JK : If I went to work for the EPO, the first thing I'd do would be to join a trade union.
AC: As can be seen in our history, the only answer to a powerful EPO President is a powerful trade union. BB always tells you that he got the EPO more efficient through hard work, ask him whose?
Press: Every AC delegation can consider themselves dishonest who only lives upon the labour of the EPO staff and don’t care who occupies the throne.
BB: One of these days you'll see the light and we'll have the trade unions in. Just a matter of time they will sign the MoU.
EB: The Brussels office is the most effective place to preach the gospel of unionism.
VP1: The problem with the EPO unions today is that there aren't enough of them. The FFPE-EPO could come in useful.
SUEPO: We have come too far, struggled too long, sacrificed too much and have too much left to do, to allow that which we have achieved for the good of all to be swept away without a fight. And we have not forgotten how to fight.
Press: The only effective answer to prevent for organized greed is organized labour.
FFPE-EPO: A trade union is not a fee-for-service organization, it is a family.
SUEPO: There are two kinds of trade unions, those who do the work and those who take the credit. Try to be in the first group; there is less competition there.
EPO staff: We don’t want a trade union or a democratic election without freedom of speech, freedom of association and assembly. Without a democratic election, whereby people choose and remove their leader, there is no method of securing human rights against the EPO. No democracy without human rights, no human rights without democracy, and no trade union rights without either. That is our belief; that is our creed.
