A lot of lefties become so far left in their leftiness that they forget they're lefties and become intolerant, self-righteous righties.
Oh, and I've never heard of Bob Crowe either.

Im a leftie and I liked him. His job was to represent the workers in his union, getting them better pay and better working conditions. He did his job well. Very well. RIP.

The irony of some of you having a pop at Union leaders, without them standing up for your ancestors you'd still be chewing straw in a barn eating raw potatoes and being buggered by the local squire. Ignorant Peasants.

Unfortunately, many of today's younger generation assume, that their relatively decent working conditions in terms of hours, pay etc came about because of the kindness of owners, bosses and their back-up in the wider establishment.

It's a lifestyle choice now thankfully. My new book, "the raw potato and buggery by the aristocracy diet" will be in the shops in time for Christmas

Bob crows leadership saw their union double its membership. Says it all really. He negotiated many benefits and improvements during that time. Enough said really.
Look at how we are now going backwards again regarding pay and conditions in the UK. We need unions to grow and fight for their members.

Says the leftie......
In my opinion we need to kill off the unions - the faster the better.....
Fuck the unions and their bollocks (I know, well reasoned) -- for the last tube strike only 40% of members bothered to even return their ballot papers - 40% !!!
As an overall organisation 30% of members voted to strike - 70% did not
Apparently according to the unions this is some sort of majority and therefore the strike became legal !
What sort of bollocks is that ? How can 30% voting to strike be any kind of representative majority ?

In most unions, there'll be people who happily take the benefits, but won't back what is happening. I've seen a few down the years...cunts.

Better those those who don't join the union and still get all the benefits.

Are you saying that 75% of those who bothered to vote voted to strike? I'm no leftie, but unions have a place.
