Power to Mick Lynch

Maybe when they applied for the jobs the wages were inline with the cost of living. Everything else has gone up, including rail fares, but the wages haven't.

He thinks they should be happy with the wage they started on in 1982 because they make more than him.

Bizarre mentality.

With a demoralised, scandal ridden Metropolitan Police as well as the biggest inequality gap and most severe gentrification which is being exploited by the political parties with no notion of the risks involved... I think London is ripe for a much more devastating riot than that pitiful kerfuffle in the aftermath of Mark Duggan's death.

It's going to be a more hardcore version of what happened in the poll tax riots in 1990. Parts of London got wrecked and the elite classes all **** themselves expecially when they got stuck inside theatres or found themselves coming out of posh eateries into the middle of Armageddon

Look how angry you are, you think I have a bizarre mentality, you're launching strange personal attacks on my supposed earnings because I disagree with your political ideology. Is everything ok? You said yesterday you weren't going to waste more time replying, yet there you are typing away angry replies

You are the one that is always angry posting. Your name even suggests it.
 
I'm usually anti-union/anti-strike, but yes Mick Lynch has been subjected to absolutely shocking levels of media bias, the whole interview with Piers Morgan and the puppet avatar just sums up the state of the modern media and why the general public seem to now just treat it largely with contempt.

Everything is an attempt to shut Mick down from speaking about the actual issue and divert attention from that and the disparity between ordinary worker renumeration stagnating whilst company profits and upper management rewards have continued increasing.

Our MPs as well treat the public as if they are stupid (or perhaps our elected officials are actually just morons). I can't remember the MPs name on QT the other day, but she argued with Mick that the RMT had been given a guarantee that there would be no compulsory redundancies and Mick refuted this. She then pulls out the letter and reads from it, explicitly stating that no such guarantee could be given - and then continued to repeat that a guarantee had been given. Mental.

The scary part is that they (MPs) do it because it works so effectively - parrot a lie often enough and it sticks in the minds of the ~36% of the electorate required to get them into power. The truth is whatever they repeat 1000s of times. Every week you see it at PM questions: Johnson finishes almost every "answer" with a variation of "we support good thing, labour supports bad thing" and it's presented in the friendly media as though he's given a great performance. It's noticeable that many of the media personalities who got savaged by Mick Lynch last week immediately posted it on twitter and tried to spin it as him being the one struggling. We are truly in a post-fact world.
 
Funny how people turn on each other very quickly over nothing. I guess some people just get a kick out of being quarrelsome.

You sound like you have been angry for a very long time so it doesnt surprise me to know youve used that tag since then.

I'm pretty much not at all agreeable, that may come across as angry but I'm actually a very laid back person, however I simply won't pretend to agree with something I don't; I do speak my mind if I have an opinion on something and I won't be bullied into being quiet. If that goes against what everyone else thinks; I don't care.
 
I wonder if the media will try to get us hating on these guys, I mean think of the inflationary effect this additional funding would cause. Obviously the 15% pay rise is cool when it's middle class occupations involved. Some nice comparisons with a plumber just to emphasise the public support requirements, just in case we were confused on which way to lean here...
