This week, the UAW announced it was appealing the results of the union vote to the National Labor Relations Board, alleging excessive “outside interference.”


So uhh Bob at the UAW, mind if we look in to the UAW’s “excessive outside interference”? I thought so...

The narrow loss — 712 to 626 . . .

Since when is a loss by over 15% of the vote a "narrow loss"?

Unions are bound and determined to destroy manufacturing in America.

The thugs are crying and will strong arm employees into changing their vote if there is another vote.

It looks like VW Chattanooga workers are making more than current UAW “Tier 2” employees at GM/F/Chry.

That can’t be a strong selling point for the union.
Then subtract 2 hours a month pay for union dues.

Germany is a ‘socialist’ country. Different laws, different history.

Why should a requirement in German for “Workers” (a Commie term) boards be binding here i the USofA, a different country....

UAW must be ‘reaching out’ to their socialist brother in der Fatherland....

UAW - the Union of AntiAmerican Workers. Just say no to the unions, the destroyer of American Jobs.

If VW really wanted the UAW they could have taken over an abandoned Big Three plant in Michigan or Ohio for *much* less than they shelled out in Tennessee.Something doesn’t add up here.

Since he took over the helm of the UAW in 2010, Bob King has set his sights on the Southern auto industry as a fertile new battleground in the fight to save the American labour movement.

It's understandable that the typical Canadian,perhaps even the typical Canadian journalist,doesn't have the first clue of what makes...or once made,at least...the US tick.Particularly the Southern US.God knows that the typical American just barely understands that Canada even *exists*...that's how ignorant most of *us* are.

One thing that Americans *and* Canadians should understand is that in *this* country the organized labor movement is *dead*...except for Federal,state,county and municipal "workers" unions.It just hasn't had the good sense to fall over just yet.

The management at Volkswagen did not learn from their last mistake when they had a union shop. They actual embraced having a union!

They outta see Detroit at what will happen.
