Don't forget that there is a lot more to what trade unions offer their
members than just collective bargaining on pay (and conditions of

provide an individual with a counter-balance to the size, weight,
expertise and legal budgets of the employer.

Mine, BECTU, includes public liability insurance for each member, which if
bought individually would cost more than the annual subscription.
