    Tube Strike

    Once again the TFL unions are holding London to ransom.
    Fortunately I'll be working form home with a bacon butty in my pyjamas.

    So glad I'm not contracting in London at the moment it's always chaos when there's a tube strike.

      Why do you keep a bacon butty in your pyjamas? Some kind of weird pork fetish?

          The left are a bunch of idealists with no grasp of reality who pretend to "care" about the less fortunate in society. This "caring" mentality is a shroud that hides deep seated envy and a desire to control others. Because the ideology fails to stand up to scrutiny lefties get hysterical and end up patronising those they wish to "represent"

          They would be no good in power and most of them know it. This would be the best they could achieve if ever they ran a government Venezuela

                  Smash the union, outsource the work to a private company. We could have drivers in India driving them with "drive-by-wire" technology.

                    Why do we need anyone to drive a train? I could knock up something in 10 minutes in Visual Basic to do the same job.
                    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.
