thought strike breakers were supposed to be getting kicked out of union. when is this going to happen. some of them are actually gaining money out of these strikes . working the strikes and then doing overtime to help clear mail day after. DISGUSTING !!!

I think that's going to be down to us to start writing to HQ and put the pressure on them. Of course they won't want to lose the subs the strike breakers pay, but I wouldn't want their filthy, scabby, ill-begotten money!

We'll recover that loss when we stop funding wicked uncle Gordon, then CWU funds will be CLEAN and OURS.
We wish to serve - but we will not be servile

You're right there mate! But according to today's Independent, the political parties are in talks with each other to get the tax payer to fund their activities. It's going to cost us at least £20m a year. All because of Blair's Cash For Honours scandal for which no one was guilty and everything was done above board. Just think pal, for a nice big bung, you could have been the new Earl of Manchester. :wink:

Yes, that's a fact. And of course no one will ever be able to say to your kids "your dad is a scab!" Imagine being such an embarrassment that you make your own fleash a blood cringe? See you on the picket line where all men and women of honour belong!
