ANOTHER unionised professional sports team in the United States has crossed the same Boston hotel workers’ picket line as the baseball teams LA Dodgers and New York Yankees.
This time it is the ice hockey team Philadelphia Flyers who checked into the Ritz-Carlton yesterday scabbing over the picket set up by striking hotel workers and their union Unite Here Local 26.
Unite Here Local 26 members have been on strike across the city since October 3 after months of contract negotiations with hotel giants Marriott broke down.
