Don't upset Stuk by posting one sides argument. Apparently RMT press releases are irrelevant and all lies (despite no evidence to back this up or if it's even been read) Upset... yeah right. He wasn't replying to me. And I said anything from them is biased, which obviously they are, rather than irrelevant or lies. But we know you read and hear what you want to, rather than what's actually written or stated.
Optimistic as ever |

But we know you read and hear what you want to, rather than what's actually written or stated. At least I read stuff, even if it is a bit long. Of course it's biased, it's one side of the argument, you could counter it by offering up what the other side says to balance it out if you want. Edited by nickgusset (19 Dec 2016 4.31pm)

It was a rabble rousing speech in front of union members. I hear the rhetoric at many meetings. But that's all it is, rhetoric. So you don't mind them talking bollocks and lying to your face then? Normally you'd say they've let the cat out of the bag, but in this case it's just what everyone suspected anyway.

Edited by nickgusset (19 Dec 2016 4.31pm) I don't have the time nor inclination. They've been lying all the long that "it's all about safety" and no amount of waffling from them will change that. I said from the start that they'd get further by telling the truth, that they're worried about jobs and kicking the conservatives at the same time is a bonus to them.

So even though you haven't read it you are convinced it is lies. Any other evidence to back your assertion that the union is lying?

The same sources that said Corbyn stormed out of a party because they played Things can only get better, although it transpires he left way before the song was played? What else did he say other than Hurt the anti working class Tory government. Perhaps that is his wish, Id go along with it, but I wouldn't use it as a reason to strike. However, Co ordinating with other unions over strike days is a good tactical move.
Wad that reported in your news sources?
