Are the 'boys' worrying about a lack of support or just posturing?

The Express has its views as do all newspapers. I think Ed Miliband is just reflecting public opinion. It's sad, but here in Southampton we have had bin strikes (haven't gone down well), parking enforcement strikes (have gone down well with some people), and various others because the council is trying to balance its books. I just want my bin emptied at the end of the day, and sadly that seems to be what most people want. I do have some sympathy for strikers if they they are getting a raw deal, but I grew up in the 1980's and people became self centered. Miliband can't ignore that if he wants to be Prime Minister.
