    He's doing what he's paid to do, representing the interests of the members of his union.

        Personally I'd just automate the trains. They've done it in Paris and they didn't even close the lines other than for the regular 4 hours at night.

        Get them over here and get them to sort it.

            The SS were paid to do what they did, does not make what they did right though.

              Ok, well yes. However. If they automated one line at a time.

                  I would suggest that he stop being such a **** about it.

                  2.5% this year, plus 0.5% above inflation next year seems pretty fair to me.

                    Most loathed Londoner?

                    Everyone else is getting pay freezes, pay cuts and job cuts but he wants more money, on top of a 10 hour working week, or whatever pitifl amount it is they work. ******, plain and simple. Even people who'd normally be on the side of the working hate him.

                    It'll be paid back in full one day, and when they're all crying abotu losing their jobs to automated trains the rest of us will be pissing ourselves laughing.
