    He's a hypocrite of the first order. And a ****.

      his need is greater than yours, and as he is in charge he will take money from a guy on £12k.

        That's right. His unions membership is half what it used to be. Great job.

          But those members still earn more then they would do in any equivalent job. Compare a lorry driver with one of bob's workers and his members earn twice as much.

            He's an annoying bugger but you have a point.
            While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                Bob argued eloquently that when the bombings happened due to the screw up with the communications issue that his members acted on their own initiative to save other human lives.

                But then again so did everyone else involved who all tend to be members of other trade unions.
