Union threatens SABC with total blackout

The conflict between trade unions and the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) has escalated as the public broadcaster readies a round of job cuts that could affect 600 people.

The Communications Workers’ Union (CWU) previously said it was discussing the possibility of a “full-blown strike” and has now said that it will cause a complete blackout at the SABC if its workers are undermined.

“Should the employer become so arrogant that they undermine everything about workers, we must withdraw labour and that will lead to a complete blackout at the SABC of both radio and TV because that’s the last solution we have to look at,” the CWU told Eyewitness News.

just a child throwing a tantrum, if you say no, nothing will happen.
if you give them what you want, you show them throwing tantrums gets results.

if they really are serious, let them do whatever they want, nothing will happen anyway.

There are going to be 15 really bored people if they do manage that.

I'd rather watch this any day.

I would actually pay my arrears, fines and continue paying my tv licence if only this displayed.

Best news I heard all day.
Nobody will notice anyway....unless you watch Anaconda.

Just turn off the lights when you are closing the doors.......oh wait.......the ANC have already done that.

When they riot, I hope they will also be arrested like the police have arrested the farmers. The precedent have been set.

By all means, you have the full support of every taxpayer in SA to do the blackout, eat the beast from within.
