I've worked shift work all my life, are you boasting about being held

back to 3am one day?

Go find out what "overnight support work" in an IT enviroment entails.

Steve Norris made it clear he'd remove Bob Crow from the Board of TfL
(I think TfL - or was the Undergound?)

Bob Crowe resigned from the board of tfl last June:

Does this mean the RMT don't have a member on the TfL board? Somehow I
doubt the RMT would let that happen! So, same ****, different
bucket...

Perhaps because in the UK everyone simply wants to rip everyone else off
and the concept of providing a good service is confused with being some

"Perhaps because in the U.K. everyone simply wants to" be safe.

So one person doing the job of two or three is deemed safer?

1 fact about the Falklands now is that it has one of the biggest forces
base outside the UK but the Falklands Island Government makes the UK pay
to keep them there, they charge rent to the people who are there to
ensure there freedom!

Yes indeed. I was no fan of Thatchers government but she did do a few
good things.
One was the Falklands , the other was smashing the militant unions.
Unfortunately
as with weeds, you can burn them, poison them, dig them up, but they
always
come back eventually if you stop paying attention. And thats whats
happening with
the unions here.

I push you to the fact that your reply could have been mistaken and
the

Yes it could have been mistaken. By a halfwit or someone who didn't
bother
to follow the whole thread, jumped in the deep end , found he got the
wrong
end of the stick and tried to bluster his way out.


You must be of very poor education mate.

You can't follow a simple thread and you accuse me of a poor education?
You sound like 100% pure chav to me. Blaming someone else for your own
stupidity.

Sure its good money. But there is a bit more to it thatn moving a
lever.

Aww, diddums. Of course the rest of us that work upto 12/7 in a row and
never see any light are in the same boat, but we actually have to do
real work.

You're improving even further. If stupidity'd hurt you'd be crying your
arse off. Get your marbles together and play with them.
