So is this a Koha ( Te Reo for Donation)
Of course it is a lockout.
I had a reply email back from Progressive
claiming that the Palmy Workers are
wanting a 30% increase. Can anyone confirm that
and if so 30% of what current base rate?.

Bodmin: That's an outright lie. They're after 8% - and everyone else in the country is wanting the same rate as them (for historical reasons, Progressive couldn't sack everyone in PN and rehire them at lower wages, so everyone else gets paid less to do exactly the same work, in areas where living costs are arguably higher).
