Sorry I've been kinda spamming the site with this stuff but the strikes are amazing to watch and the coverage has of course been awful. Need you all to keep my sane
Journalists are such pathetic creatures. Mercenaries too weak to lift a gun.
I wouldn't consider these people journalists so much as party political pundits
damn isn't it crazy how workers flex their power once and everyone shits themselves
the world is too greedy? lmao
dudes just want fair wages and not to be screwed by billionaires man
Do these people not know the CEO can end the strike at any moment they want, but they won't because of their greed?
The CEO, bosses and the rich are like higher beings to people like this. They despise unionized workers out of envy because they have spent most of their lives in the labor reserve army or are trapped some form of precarious work they gleefully accept not to join the former. All that matters is that prices go down and people they perceive as lower then them get what's coming to them.
Dudes are also defending a rail service from lib freaks who are trying to cut 2500 jobs to start with.
If the strike is causing this much harm then why isn't the media pressuring the company to appease the demands of the workers and end the strike as soon as possible :thinkin-lenin:
Man, the BBC just can't resist going full mask off for this strike.
I also love BoJo railing against: "25 MP's from a party with 'Labour' in the name have the gall to join the picket line in a labour dispute!" With the state of the party, I'm kind of amazed that it was that many, and also surprised that Keir hasn't scolded them given what an absolute stain he is.
Keir pre-emptively scolded them and told them not to do it. 25 did anyway.
The guy seems probably pretty broke himself if he hasn't worked since 2020.
“Mick Lynch asked if he could pinch some of me medication, so I said “only a spoonful” and then he-“
Stalin ate all my medicine with his giant spoon smdh my dog head
if they could afford the rail fare from windsor to scotland, they aren't exactly hard up
depends how early they ordered in advance, but it's at least 50 quid per person one way off peak
Guess management should give in right away then, they're preventing the delivering of vital medicine.
My Gammons in Satan, that's the whole point of a strike. Workers are demonstrating that they are so essential the system doesn't function without them. Thus they deserve every penny of profit their labour produces.
Saw another article where an MP called them "Friends of Putin."
Imagine planning a trip across the country to stay with family and not knowing there was going to be a strike. The unions publicise it, the railways warn you on ticket websites and at ticket offices, and the media had been bleating about it for weeks.
I've got sympathy for people caught out by it for sudden things or truly no way to get to work etc, although I'd never throw striking workers under the bus, but these people are just fucking lemons.
This strike has me going :sicko-yes: a lot lately. :inshallah: bring this to the U.S. please.
