What about our back pay?

THE EDITOR: Has a certain trade union leader taken a vow of silence or has cat got her tongue? We have not heard a sound out of this goodly lady for the longest while, in fact since a certain government came into power. Imagine there are public servants out here still awaiting our promised back pay and not one peep out of this lady. I await a sign from this goodly lady that she is still alive and seeking the interests of all her members. If she is, why isn’t she demanding our money for us? Or has she too fallen for the Prime Minister’s lame excuse of “bureaucracy” as the reason for the non-payment of our arrears? I await the lady’s response with interest.
