You have a point here. For years lots of people believed wrongly that Labour were to blame for the crash in 2009, because that's what the media told them.

Very interesting and rather unexpected article from the spectator. That Kay Burley was an absolute disgrace, trying to paint decent working people as violent thugs. Absolutely despicable woman.
Don't peak too soon lol!
She's a tory weasel
Wonderful to see Mick Lynch handle the press like he has.
He'd be a politician that I could support.
I watched that exchange between Mick Lynch and Piers Morgan about the Hood - surreal, cutting edge stuff, there was only one winner and it wasn’t Morgan.
Accidental double post, ignore.
Seeing Mick Lynch's tour of him absolutely bodying tories/right wing media across the UK is absolutely warming the cockles of my cold dead heart. Starmer should be doing this ffs.

A great compilation here. What a great leader he is https://twitter.com/politicsjoe_uk/s...MWA6355Nk5-Y3A
Starmer is a waste of space
Yep . But he would still be too hard edged for the middle ground voters .
Alan Johnson was what the centre left needed .
Mick just being interviewed saying the right wing press are following him everywhere, searching in his bins and calling on neighbours and family looking for stories to try and discredit him. He’s really got them rattled.
Time for the workers to fight back in this country. Solidarity
Such a shame we haven't got a clone of dear Maggie, our best ever PM. She would sort the Railways out 🙂

Well she was advised not to as the trains have always been so much more efficient than the roads
Silly old bitch
These ranting union "barons" - well done Dan Walker as well.
We live in the age of the jabby, confrontational interview & the RMTs, Mick Lynch, has had a few of them.

If you treat people with respect, you can still ask tough questions & get decent answers allowing your audience to make their own minds up@5_News pic.twitter.com/pr6aYycBc5

ther doesnt seem to be many on these picket lines
Starmer is trying to win Tory votes that will never vote for anyone that isn't a Tory. He's petrified of the right wing rags. He's going to have a bit surprise when they really start gunning for him in 2024.
In a weird way, the strangest thing about how well Lynch performs is that he shows how simple it is. Be calm, clear, concise and assertive. Makes you wonder why the f@ck we seemingly have so few politicians/leaders who can master these relatively simple skills.
For me they need to embrace modernisation .
Change working practices .
Become more flexible .
Provide by law a % of a service especially bigger cities .
They have not filled vacancies in anticipation of redundancy , and transfers could be deployed.
I'm guessing they are arguing on lumps sums..
Ticketless booths has to come along with driver only trains and electrification as will more redundancies , you cant keep putting ticket prices up .
There is a 25% drop in passengers that is unlikely to return due to permanent work from home ..
We have seen this so many times where a heavily monopolised union does its best , gets great benefits , wages and then hits the ' we cannot sustain the cost due to drop in demand of passengers , fairs , consumables cost to keep maintenance flowing , renewal of track s , rolling stock and pensions .
If you a business you can't sustain the cost if you seeing a drop if demand for your product its simply maths you have to balance it .
I would certainly strengthen the lower paid support staff wage structures , I would not give train drivers any more money without a big agreement on critical modernisation and removal demarcation working ...
So many big unionised workforces have trodden this track and ended up with less jobs , less pensions which eventually impacts on the consumer, taxes and future job prospects
It's easy if you know all the answers they are only asking him simple questions about strikes and trade union rules and the Railways, ask him what to do about inflation he wouldn't have the first idea!
He might look calm on the outside, but look at the top of his right eye he's twitching like mad and it gets more twitchy when he gets angry or frustrated. He's good at answering the questions but it's easy as he knows the subject well, Stalmer can get asked anything, it's a completely different ball game.
He will be very well briefed , its whether you will believe everything he says or how he delivers it and we interrupt it , id like to see him interviewed by someone who has a deeper knowledge of the industry and see how he performs , I bet you coudl get him riled up and lose the plot he looks like he enjoys bullying the weak ..
Some interesting reads should cheer some up https://www.union-news.co.uk/rmt-sus...boris-johnson/

Think he has been looking for the right moment to strike https://www.theguardian.com/politics...r-a-new-battle

Wonder if he had been in Corbyn's role he'd fair better
