Shadow chancellor Ed Balls urges the unions not to fall into the government's "trap" by striking over plans to reform public sector pensions.

No, he just realises that strike action isn't the answer and he's trying to avoid a PR disaster for the Labour Party. What do you think?

Surprise surprise the unions want a strike. Last time people at day job strike not one of them even bothered to picket they just wanted a day off. Just get on with it and suffer like everyone else. Why should I be paying for your pension anyway? Dip into your own pocket.
