Bollocks to scumbag unions and union reps

Within 6 days of coming to power, Labour started to raid private pensions to the sum of £5 Billion a year; where were the unions then?

If we all work together, we can SMASH unions, and SMASH union reps and leaders! Hit them, beat them, send them dog s**t through the post. Do not show them the slightest mercy. Offer them no quarter.

Welcome - is the Daily Mail late at your address -

As to your question - Ummm if its a PRIVATE pension it will have nothing at all to do with the Union unless they are the Pension Provider.

Apt email addy.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Pity there wasn't more support when just 3 years ago, our pension age was increased to 65, the final salary pension reduced to career average and who was it who took to the streets............................. :hmmmm well nobody..................and the ballot?...............never materialised..............so the union would support a day of action for someone else' pension but totally ignore their own members reduced pension and increased working life :shock:

I agree with all but the only support that CWU gave for J30 was a letter as far as i know? As always it was grass roots CWU members that were the ones on the streets. Those would be the same ones that have had their pensions f*cked by HQ and RM.

Well they did say that 30/6 was NOT the officially agreed date and that some unions had jumped the gun......................I'd love to be stood in front of a firing squad manned by those same people..........I'd still be alive a 100 years later. You know the old spanish saying of manana, you don't think there's a little spanish blood flowing through their veins :hmmmm

Nothing was agreed by our "Trade Unions" together because as the name implies "Trade Unions" are for a group of workers not ALL workers although not all Unions are alike look at the IWW preamble written over a hundred years ago http://iww.org.uk/about/preamble" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; . Mate not sure what you mean about Spanish blood as Spanish workers have been fighting harder than any UK worker for OUR rights for over 80 years (Spanish civil war and the CNT union would be a good start on the internet?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIyvEQUJhHc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; is a snip of the past but the CNT are still there and growing stronger outside their traditional strongholds. if you do watch this vid you will note they (Spanish workers) hate Nazis as much as Stalin and it was returned because both Nazis and Communists realised that the Spanish workers were against their control because as workers, they knew they could and should control their own destiny. Without going into history the "West" were not unhappy that the fascists beat the workers either because it kept our working people here in line although it should be remembered that many thousands of UK workers went to help their Spanish workers in SOLIDARITY. This is a subject that every decent "Trade Unionist" should look at i think.

Really? well I don't think I'll bother with the history lesson thanks. Nazis and Stalin............that was over 60 years ago and the Spanish Civil war that was more than 70 years ago.................is it relevant today :hmmmm I mean how far do you want to go back.

Without the knowledge of your history, you cannot determine your destiny.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

And what part of history is going to determine my destiny.......only the most recent events determine destiny at all.
