  • The milk ad they don't want you to see,

    They didn't want me to see that? Great. Please thank them on my behalf.

    The first shot is pretty much the doorstep of the horn. You can see Simon step past the point where the Matterhorn security sit.

    I see now. I stand corrected.

    umm, once again...no-one ever said there was a lynch mob. she was refering to the mood, and despite what that video shows, it may still have existed. who knows what was happening in the time leading up to then?

    I'm with Malcolm, that devolved into harassment pretty quickly. And I agree, it's not actually a video of the group leaving the Matterhorn, is it?

    It seems silly to suggest WB was planning this all along when a) I just don't think they're that smart and b) I just don't think they'd *care* that much about maintaining their reputation with Kiwis. Why would they?

    I'd be very surprised if they didn't care about their reputation within the industry. And that includes a reputation for being tough negotiators on employment contracts.

    Comparing a union's action with civil war is totally going to get people to sit down and calmly sort this out. We're all set.

    An in insufficient doses, it still tastes of dish soap.

    Rinse the soap off, people. Don't make me bring my own china.

    Um...maybe he didn't do them properly?

    Shall we talk about the scourge of New Zealanders not rinsing the dishes before leaving them to dry?

    Oh, look, my coat.

    In both education and film disputes, communication of what those key conditions are has been appallingly inept. It's surely no surprise that corporate media, big business or a right-wing government will come up with an opposing storyline. Being prepared would have been prudent.

    The media will always be anti-union, because hey, that's how they roll. You only need to go for an interview at the Dom Post to know what they think about the union movement. But the more fundamental question is: are there members of NZEI who aren't clear about their union's objectives in the current dispute? And the answer as far as I know would seem to be no.

    Can we say the same here? Are the members of the actors' guild clear on what the current dispute is about, have they been adequately consulted, and do they support it?
