Apologies for the Bernie Lib energy, but Mick Lynch has been going on TV for the last 48 hours dismantling every ghastly pundit and journalist that is trying to demonize striking rail workers:
- you can see what picketing involves, I can’t believe this line of questioning…what are you talking about, you seem to have gone off into the world of the surreal
- (to close Starmer ally) i don’t even know who you are
- are we to plead? are we to beg? we want to bargain for our futures. we want to negotiate
- pay restraint? he’s on £600k a year
- i can’t do that with a backbench MP who’s just learnt it off a script
- that’s a lie, direct lie…he’s lying…and you’re a liar
It’s nice to see the media class fuck up and let someone competent on
:train-shining: :traingang:
To quote this Guardian interview with him:
He sighs: “All I want from life is a bit of socialism.”
that miners strike picket question reminded me of that time Margaret Hodge cornered Corbyn while secretly recording him to ask about anti semitism to which Corbyn replied that anti semitism is a serious issue with no place in the party and she released the tape leading to the media playing it and talking about how on the tape he admitted to being an anti semite
