have gone barking mad?

What next, are they going to let the Army go on strike as well?

No, they'll use HM Forces to replace the police when they go on strike.

well lets hope they'll finally get rid of final salary pension schemes but i very much doubt they will be brave enough.

That assumes, scaryteacher that there are enough Armed Forces to go round. They've just had one shock as the Army saysit no longer has the manpower to cover military operations and a possible fireman's strike (and too many Green Goddesses have been sold off). And the RMP isn't that big in the first place, and no other personnel have the training in arrest/investigation etc to allow for successful prosecutions.
