    CBI chief dismisses unions as irrelevant By Mark Milner, Guardian, UK
    A TUC spokesman said: 'It's disappointing to see Digby Jones go back to the rhetoric of the Thatcher years.

    'That is not the way business will be taken seriously. Without unions to stand up for people at work, Britain would be a much less fair society, pensions would be on their way out - except in the boardroom - and many more people would be injured or die at work every year.'
