Default Omg! Yet more strikes

I have had enough. London Underground workers are going on strike and
affecting millions of people because they think one of their collegues was
unfairly dismissed.

I think its about time that we had a serious look at union powers, I think
the LU Unions are too powerful. How on earth can a bunch of 600 drivers

be
paid around £30k/year for what is essentially a low-skilled job?


Try doing it and then you'll find out

I really have had enough. We need some changes in the law, this is no

longer
about workers rights, this is about the rights of Londoners not to be held
to ransom by a small minority, who now seem to use *any* excuse to go on
strike.


It takes two to make an argument.


Sack the lot of 'em!


That's a good idea, then you'll have no one to drive at all.
