But he admitted yesterday not being too worried about a threat of a national strike, more industrial action by disgruntled Customs officers, or waste haulers putting their trucks down for good. In fact, Stuart considers it “par for the course”.

“I don’t think we need to worry too much,” Stuart said during an impromptu Press conference in the middle of his visit to BMEX at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre yesterday. “Trade unions are supposed to make noise on behalf of the persons they represent. These noises have to be made.
