Pulling Together

The Daily Post has been running letters on the small business/ entrepreunarial / trade union / economy debate. I have decided to chip in as follows if the Post choose to print it.

"Dear editor,

In recent days we have seen a debate involving the Federation of Small Business, Wales TUC and a Conservative Assembly candidate with each looking for a weakness in the others case. I do feel however that our main aim for the coming years must be to harness the energy of small business, the organisational ability of trade unions with the need to take forward the skills agenda, with what Rhodri Morgan has called the "can do" mentality. We will gain most for Wales if we avoid seeing these as conflicting agendas, but accept the challenge of working together for the common good. The employer, the union and the entrepreneur have much to gain from each other and we must avoid building false barriers between us.
