I hope the RMT members are proud of their contribution to these rises.



I'm impressed you managed to get from "Tory ******* screws the idiots
who thought it'd be funny to vote for him" to "it's the union's fault"
in no moves.


To be fair, he's some hours behind the first sighting of this particular
non-argument. 'The RMT don't operate buses, a single Oyster fare on

RPI+0.5%. Those Marxist *******s.
