Dexter's right hand man Matt Hebb was NDP to NSGEU senior staff [still running all federal and provincial campaigns] to government. Same cycle for another senior staff in the government. Matt Hebb's wife is the communications person for the union.
She is on the front lines of complaints by union members and activists. That will make for some interesting carryback to the inner sanctum of Orange Tower. [Numbering 5 people at the core.]
The government has already been getting pushback from parts of the base, even without coherence to those parts. I can see it in the hysterical defensiveness of the MLAs. They are primed before I say anything.
And the pace of good news emails to the membership is picking up. Branching out now to have some names and faces of back bench MLAs on them, rather tha the usual suspect: the Cabinet Ministers by now pretty strongly associated with spinning the bad news.
