Reply to: Peter Mandelson: City dominance must end

[Bob Dalek]

Its always the minorities that want to shove their unpalatable sh***te down other peoples throat that want strong Unions. Basically nobody listens to their ignorant views, so they bully groups of people under threat of violence to feather their own nests, I remember driving through miners pickets lines to get to work. What great pleasure I got seeing the police bash them with their truncheons.

Your soul will burn in Hell for all eternity, fired by (Oh! the irony) best quality Yorkshire coal, with Scargill himself shoveling more of the stuff onto the fire.

Great thread (link) - all started with a bloke wanting to know where he can buy a "Non-Emmet" sticker for his car, thus proudly proclaiming he's a local person and therefore entitled to some sort of different consideration. It's clear from that thread that a significant proportion of the Cornish don't want visitors and won't welcome them. That's fine - there are plenty of other places I can (and do) go for fun. There's nothing special about Cornwall any more than there is about my tuliphole of a home town.

Strange that they never think to call us Benefactors, Saviours, Founders of their feast, etc.

[bogeyman]

Grockels they call us - it's their impotent rage, you see. Anyway, as long as Richard & Judy wannabes continue to buy-up Cornish houses, the inbred population will soon be a memory. Jumped-up benefits cheating genetic cul-de-sacs that they are.

My mates in the Fire brigade and they're in the process of kicking the union out because they don't represent the lads. Self serving bunch of chunts. Just like Unite / GMT / RMT.

Mates?

Same sort of stuff was said by the Nottinghamshire miners. Where are they now?

You are Norman Tebbit and I claim my free bicycle.

Imperfect though the unions were, what we have now is a small group of pro-Tory lick spittles who represent Number 10 alone (Bill Morris clones, for example). Last time a union did anything Leftie (Fire Brigade union), the Media treated them like Stalinist baby eaters. And before you trot out any more anti-union toss, remember that the PCG is a union by another name.

If Bob Crow is representative of all that is wrong with unions, I think the whole lot deserve to go, for he is a gobtulipe **** of the highest order.

Are you suggesting that tube workers should not be allowed to drink at work?

tsk tsk.

[Bob Dalek]

I don't. I was treated like scum in Cornwall for the "crime" of being an English tourist. Stuff em - I won't be rushing back.

That's not entirely true, Unions are still heavily involved in the collective pay negotiations in some sectors. My last gig had a Union negotiated pay settlement a month before I left, people there seemed happy.

Prior to Mrs T the Unions were pretty excessive and certainly responsible for massive problems, but I feel that the destruction of the Unions went too far. A lot of it was done by demolishing the industries that were Unionised which was a wrecking ball to crack a nut and has left UK PLC with nothing more than the vapourware Banking and Service industries.

I got the same treatment on the Isle Of Wight.

Maybe they earn what they deserve. To their credit they don't screw people out of their money and people who visit Cornwall actually have pleasant feelings about the money spent.

I agree. Whenever a system is tilted as much as the Gov./unions system is, bad stuff happens.

[TykeMerc]

An example of this?

A quick look at unions' activities reveals that they are now nothing more than legal aid entities.

So true, and they are still fighting a class war, but they are actually damaging the interests of the people they support, but never realise it.
