Cameron Invites Unions To Number 10

http://www.talktalk.co.uk/news/pa/uknews/2010/12/20/prime-minister-to-meet-union-bosses.html

David Cameron is to have a formal meeting with Union leaders in Downing Street, it has been announced.

The last time such a meeting between a Tory PM and Union bosses took place was in 1985 when the then-TUC general secretary Norman Willis, met Margaret Thatcher.

The two sides will meet amid growing concern about impending job losses and spending cuts in the public sector.

However, with the Tories so intent on reducing the budget deficit by cutting spending at such a fast pace, it is difficult to see what the Unions will gain from meeting with Mr Cameron.

I don't see how they will be able to change the government's mind on pursuing this course of action.
