Couldn't help but get involved in this discussion. As I read the posts and refer to the online debates it seems to me we are all guilty of a little labour "reality show" voyeurism.  As this merger comes to an end there is bound to be some dirty laundry and unpleasant wrangling. In the interests of the membership and the health of the movement this really should have happened behind closed doors. The consensus forming by all but a few diehard activists is that UNITE and HERE should get on with it and save us all the gory details. Clearly Workers United has done just that, its now time for HERE to step up and tell us where they're going and how they plan to get there. Some maturity is the least we should expect from leadership.
