But neither lab / LD condemn the strikes, both say it is the govt who should be negotiating so as to avoid them. Maybe there is a bit of a difference but as you've described it at least, it sounds like semantics?

I think you're probably right about it being semantics but if you go back and read that Ed Davey piece I linked to again, he does actually focus on the negative impacts of the strikes and how they are unfair on people who depend on public transport to do business....I know its not an outright condemnation but it certainly paints the picture that the Lib Dems think they are dispruptive and if the government were not a pile of shite, avoidable too.

I think so.
Tories: Labour won't condem the strikes!
Labour: Being permitted to strike is a fundamental right so we won't condem them!
Lib Dem: These strikes are wrong but its the government's responsibility to avoid them happening in the first place.
