Fortunately the die hard lefties who love unions are a dying breed

Need to be careful we don't swing too far though. It will happen to some degree - it always does, too far and we'll end up at the other end of the extreme and things like zero-hour contracts will be the norm.

Though I blame the likes of Crowe for this. Taking the **** like he and his mob do leaves a sour taste over all the good to come from unions.

I know you may be a French boris but "breed" in England means "domestic animals or plants"

Unless you're calling members names here which you know is against the rules. Now grow up.

I'm English, born and raised. "Breed" can also mean a demographic or type of person.

You're the only one I can see in this thread that needs to grow up.

Not only are you trolling - stop it, but you're also factually wrong.

"A dying breed" is a well known saying in the UK and not offensive.

And some nasty people say the N word is not offensive but we know it is. Not saying that you're nasty because you're not

I suggest you take your own advice.

I prefer to use the Oxford English Dictionary for my defintions. I think that's a reasonable authortative source.

Those people are a minority unlike the fact that most people will not find being called a dying breed offensive.

Being English I do so that makes me a minority and we know that the minority always wins here in the UK

You're boring me. Stop posting here before I ban you for very obvious trolling.

I work for TfL indirectly so no grudges here

As long as you don't start glorifying the unions - all's good!

From your link "In a general election, this would give Labour a 100-seat majority"

So you would be happy for a sex offender to mind your kids? because as you say "Doesn't stop him from doing a good job"

I'd rather be called a a name then live in a cess pool like London and just for lols vote in the village idiot.

And yes I have lived there while working on the old Wimberley for 8 months.

That may be partly because the current boundaries are so skewed towards labour that they get way more seats than a similar conservative majority....

Just because they are a sex offender doesnt mean they aren't a great bricky.

I know you've got a short attention span but you should have read the second bullet point in your dictionary.

I still have to decide which one to sign up to

Couple days ago on our induction day a rep from both RMT and TSSA came to give a little speech...they make a pretty good argument as to why it's good to be in one... I was hoping Boris would come in to give an argument as to why not join

Read the guardian comments section recently..?

Even that guy who spent 13 months in a boat somehow ends up with a discussion about how evil the conservatives are... :rolleyes:
