I'm sure he had the firemen at heart.
Well, the FBU have decided they would prefer a different, more left-wing leader of their union, so they weren't happy that Gilchrist didn't pursue their interests strongly enough.

OK, the union, as part of its objective of improving the lot of its members, would be daft to do something which resulted in a business going bust. But I've never heard of any such cases.

I've heard of employers attacking the conditions of their workforce, these workers resisting, and the employer winding the company up and moving on (often having pocketed public funds in the process). But that's not the same thing.

I've never heard of a union pursuing an unreasonable claim resulting in a company going bust.
