I worry about this. Many times bob crow has led rail strikes claiming there were safety issues that turned out to be actually quite minor or were only vaguely related to the actual grievance.

He is in danger of crying wolf once too often.

Sorry, to continue a point I failed to make. The public has been very sympathetic to safety issues on the railways since Hatfield and Potters Bar (and others) revealed there was a climate where safety of passengers was being seriously compromised by the rush to profit.

however Bob Crow is in danger of exhausting that sympathy by keep going to the well when it isn't really the problem. He may think it's a good tactic, but it's becoming a failing strategy and that makes it bad politics.
