... 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? 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. Sack the lot of 'em! 30k per year is not a huge amount if you live in London and have to pay for accomodation there too. I think two tube drivers are better value for money than one MP, as at least they do something useful. They must do, as at least we all notice when they are not working! How about all the other governemnt staff nobody notuices if they work or not? Mikael |
