Yeah, for the Labour Party, Socialist values and all that. If Blair and Brown can do it why not Big Al. Spin, spin, spin.

Well, Al is a member of the Labour Party. I expect he's quite at home there too.
The Industrial Workers of the World. The union whose members never scab!

Disagree with you there my friend.
Mr Leighton is after a Knighthood;& restructuring RM (getting it ripe for privatisation) is one big step in that direction.
He sees his legacy as a Megabusiness tycoon.
Workers are cheap-as-chips cannon fodder.

correct -break the union , privatisation -Lord Spiv in the House of Lords or Sir Allan Spiv. His Toniness was more than happy to give peerages away to some very dubious people Getting sick of reading articles about Mr Me,Me,Me -self obessed , vain, egotistical; recycled drivel..
