    But at this critical moment for our economy, in the holiday season

    Fuck off

      Apart from it being a busy season being, you know, the point - they'll always claim this anyway.

      The entire British media is in absolute lockstep, constantly using the phrase "Christmas train strikes" and constantly asking Mick Lynch (since he is the only pro-union person allowed on British media as they fight to be the one to somehow trip him up while scolding him) why they're striking "through the Christmas period".

      And it's a flat out lie. There aren't any strikes between the 17th of December and January 3rd. But everyone, including the Guardian, BBC etc just keep repeating it.

      Strikers could detonate charges on all the major rail bridges and want the country fall apart and I'd still support them before I ever agreed with a single on of these media and political class ghouls.

      Rant over. :soviet-huff:

      That was essentially Trudeau's message when he legislated postal workers back to work a few years ago. And of course everyone lapped it up because the treats must flow
