So using that as a basis, how should TPTB engineer a confrontation with
Comrade Crow's mob, and achieve total victory?

Simple. With the majority she enjoyed in the commons she could push through
the sort of legislation that I mentioned in another post legally limiting the
number of strike days per year to a rather low number. Wait for morons in RMT
to break the law then inflict massive fines on said union until they capitulate
or even better it goes broke and is dissolved.

I asked how it could be done now, in the 21st century. I'm really not
interested in your fantasies about Margaret Thatcher in the 1980s, as
she is no longer relevant.

Also pull rabbit out of hat in the form of tucked away clause that if strikes
do continue over the legal period then strikers can be arrested and charged
with public order offences and dismissed from their jobs on the spot. From
what I've heard people are queuing around the block to for tube driver jobs
even when there isn't a recession so LU won't have any problems replacing the
troublemakers.

Fantasy land.
