Off Topic The Politics Thread

Glad you’ve kept your bourgeois, middle class thinking at the door and spoke to an actual worker in dispute, rather than read the guff written in the media. I know a few postal workers, who are ex colleagues from BA and seems most are up for the fight. It’s either that or looking for new employment so what have they got to lose ?

Let’s also not forget the £2.4 million worth of shares due to be split between 4 senior executives…..

 

I see what you're saying about preferring on occupation over another. It sounds better in theory than it would work in practice imo. And it could be used by government to give no-one a rise. Public opinion is a factor, and they would favour a nurse or a paramedic over a traffic warden all day long.

Yes, I do think there has been some questionable awarding of contracts. Again, disreputable people taking advantage of a national emergency. There is an inquiry, and it has to get to the bottom of the circumstances around each award of a contract.

 

Get yourself up here @Staines R's - Acottiah Unions have paused their threat fir nurses, paramedics and ambulancw drivers to strike as Scottish government have now tabled a 7 5% offer for them to put to their members. Mrs Steels was all ready to go out on strike next month....

That's you ****ed with your Radiohead posts then

 

Yeah, from a "No Borders" Corbyn supporter. Sweet.

 

Except I’m neither of those things while you’re a Little Englander who can’t accept the world is changing.

 

chinese tanks are fueling up

 

To be fair, certain parts of Europe are changing for the ****ing worse, as was shown yesterday.

 

You're an extremist, mate. When I asked you what restrictions you would place on immigration, you floundered and couldn't give an answer, because you wouldn't place any restrictions. In your little world of woke Instagramists, No Borders Between Nations is the majority view, I'm sure. But it represents a tiny percentage view of the rest of the country, perhaps less than 1%.

 

I didn’t give that view whatsoever though despite you claiming it numerous times. The sad fact is your generation have pulled the drawbridge up on subsequent generations and we desperately need more immigrants to fuel the economy and pay for your pensions and care.

 

Who would you exclude, or what cap would you put on numbers?
