Here's the thing
I'd cross the picket line quite happily. If my employer pisses me off enough (not that they do) then I'll simply go somewhere else. I am not in a union as you can probably guess.
I am confused by your last comment. The Labour Party is un-sound IMO, and I would say that unions are equally un-sound.

The roots of the Union are ordinary working people
the bureaucracy of the Union are un-sound no doubt as they are the same people who support the Labour party - we have to turn that around by seizing control of the Unions and bringing it back into democratic control. The Labour Party is too far gone for that ever to happen. The Unions need to stop supporting Labour and fund a working-class alternative.
