    I’m interested BT what makes the rail workers any different to any of us who incidentally are all suffering- some more than others now as they have to find alternative more expensive ways to get to work or can’t get there at all.

    I noticed earlier in year that the politicians and this is unique decided to give themselves a hefty pay rise - who decided that ? Not us that’s for sure we didn’t vote or complain because we couldn’t .

    Society has / is changing and it’s creating a stance from people that I’ll look after mine and that’s it bo —ocks to everyone else , you yourself want no millionaires no divide no classes but the very people you vote for are creating it through mis management of funds - immigration- benefits and so it goes on to strikes for more pay from a pot of money that’s already spent.

    The whole debacle is past the point of no
    Return - you can’t keep giving from an empty pot.

    Rail operating profits from UK taxpayers and rail travellers are being transferred to Germany, France, Italy and Hong Kong.

    That's where the stakeholders do their business, not here in the UK.

    They do not give a flying f*ck about UK worker conditions, and if it all goes tits up the eejits like Schnapps and Blow Job will just give them another bail out from (you guessed it!) the British taxpayer.

    Incidentally, our present, mainly corrupt Cabinet full of Conservative and Unionist Cretins led by a blonde-haired, grinning, smirking, clueless clown aided and abetted by their quisling sidekick Kier Starmer, stand by and authorise the highest rail travel costs in Europe while simultaneously offering the worse pay and work conditions for rail operatives. Go figure?

    I have every sympathy for the striking rail workers, they have every right to withdraw their labour if they so wish. I've been on a 7 week strike, it's horrendous, quite simply with no wage your money soon runs out, but the bills keep on coming, the mortgage has to be paid and the family fed, so it's no easy decision to go on strike.

    What baffles me though is the timing of this one, inflation is going through the roof, energy costs likewise, food prices are rocketing and there are ominous gaps on supermarket shelves, petrol is getting on for £2 a litre, the situation is so bad that food banks are running out of food while overflowing with customers. Yet in this horrific scenario, when you'd think anyone with a reasonably well paid job would be happy to keep their head down and battle on, this lot decide they don't need their wage, they and their families can manage without it.

    Really ? Doesn't seem credible to me, as ever, all is most certainly not as it appears, nor as the MSM would have you think it is.

    When our workers realise they are being pushed to the limit just to survive and then find out their beloved Prime Minister wanted to spaff £150,000 on a tree house for his six month old son, they are going to strike.

    Even our criminal barristers have had enough of this goon.

    "The BBC has calculated that the median pay of full-time workers involved in the RMT national rail strike is £38,000."

    Yes, it must be a bugger trying to survive on £38,000 a year.

    In this case I do CiB, Gove said it was £44k and the BBC, of course, has Fact Checked him and said it's £38k. Bit of an own goal by the Fake News Factory, but I'll take their word for it on this one.
