I think its universally known that if you are good you would be earning big bucks in private sector and not try and catch a gravy train in public sector. Public sector is pretty much the destination for losers who have large noses that they want to trough. They need to be told in strong language to put up or feck off and get a better paid job.Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostPerhaps if teachers were any good they would be paid betterVote Corbyn !

Except they're not really privatised. It generally tends to be a mutant hybrid that should have the life support plug pulled.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostIt'll all blow over as the government will continue to use DA's favourite word, privatisation, and then the right wing can't complain about them being on strike as they'll no longer be public servants...Privatised fire and rescue services: Secret Government plans to sell off 46 fire and rescue services revealed - Mirror Online

Nah parliament is just Merkels bitchOriginally posted by Old Greg View PostParliament has a monopoly on legislative power.Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.
No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment
