agree entirely. we are a spent force. cheers Dave and Andy.
I don't think Dave and Andy are to blame.
Andy was forced to step in due to the absence of Pullinger.
Dave's remit wasn't delivery. That was Terry but he was absent.
The whole s**t show they inherited was one of Terry's making. Overpromise. Underdeliver.
What really worries me is Walsh appears to be one of his disciples.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
Pullinger or not, they ran the dispute. they got the members to accept this ''shitshow''. i still wonder though how it would've all panned out HAD Pullinger not been sidelined, would he have escalated the dispute? called us ''all out''? he infamously said '' i would rather smash the lot than give in to them''...we will never know now.
I can hold my hand up and say i was one of the 30 % who voted NO,i am now going to sit back and laugh at them all moaning and dripping after xmas, only a few years left for me and no commitments ,you had the win in the bag but bottled it ,its just a sad society now as the companies have you really believing your own self worth,i just hope your children are learning a valuable lesson when their time comes after watching their parents throw it all away.
