I'll also say that I think the Unions in general will struggle to gain support from the general public at the moment, a lot of people in the private sector have really suffered in the last couple of years and whether you like it or not there is a great deal of bad feeling towards the public sector in general even though most of it is backed up with little fact.

The recent strikes by the Underground staff and BA Cabin Crew have also given strikes a very bad name, certainly from people I know and have spoken to there zero support and there is the perception that they were/are about greed and power at a time (again) when people were loosing jobs or taking pay cuts to stay in work.
