Where does "Bob Law" fit in to the whole strike thing. He is listed as
the "regional coordinator" on the BBC news page where they give out his
mobile phone number.

A great many things can be said; that a statement is made does not
prove its truth.

Or, if you want simpler words:

"It was never the intention of the RMT union to spoil Londoner's
celebrations but to force the LU management to pull back from relaxing
safety measures brought in after the Kings Cross Fire."


Bull****.



[Oh, well I suppose they may have spoilt one Londoner's celebrations.]

From Comrade Bob Crow in his BBC bio:

"I'm not one of those union officials who continually say they regret the
inconvenience caused by industrial action.

You cannot have a dispute without inconvenience to the travelling public."

So the RMT are concerned about safety, but over at ASLEF, Northern
line drivers go on strike in support of a driver sacked for speeding,
passing a red signal and falling asleep!

That offence has not been proved by an independent body.

Bob Crow in a swimming pool full of champagne, smoking a massive
ceeeeee-gar. That's as independent as it gets, apparently.

ALL HAIL KING BOB!
