Does this ring bells for anyone (hivemind)? A poem in which the writer recalls how his partner’s dead father used to ask for the bill in a restaurant by wiggling his fingers as if holding a pen… and how he still uses this gesture, even though we don’t pay that way anymore?

Finishing, @DrJoGrady says: ‘Being right doesn’t reduce workloads, secure our pensions or end zero hour contracts.

‘We are on the brink of something special.

'But the power is in your hands.

'Let’s vote YES and secure a sector defining agreement.'
