I haven't seen anything from this old tosser for a long time. Sad to see his blood-pressure still hasn't got the better of him.

I still can't figure that nutjob out. Sometimes his bizarre statements seem to be a really clever piss-take of the most extreme Mailtard but then he comes up with something like that. Which, although undeniably wankerish, has some sort of (fucked up) logic to it - if you know what I mean.

All I can deduce is that he is batshit certifiable and needs locking up.

Logic? Are you as bonkers as he is? How the blazing fuck would you pass a law banning "economic terrorism"? And how could you possibly get agreement to define it as strike action?

What he wants is simply to ban industrial action to fit in with his warped worldview. He DOES want locking up. End of story.

Taff Vale case, 1901
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taff_Vale_ ... y_Servants

Outrage over this case led to several significant changes in the law which gave trade unions immunity from damages when 'in restraint of trade'. Considered to be a feature of a civilised society...
Trades Disputes Act, 1906

Also led to the formation of the Labour Party.

But then I expect you already knew that...

So which is it?

a) They produce nothing and leech their salary and gold plated pension off the sweat of downtrodden private sector workers.

b) They bring a billion pounds a day to the economy (That's almost 15 Prime Ministers and 2 James Murdochs)

The Mail likes to publish how much it costs to pay the gold plated pensions of public sector workers horror stories. A trick used by the Mail is give the impression that public sector pension liabilities have to be paid out in one go as if all public sector workers are going to retire tomorrow which invevitably gives out a huge figure. The Mail coveniently fails to mention public sector pension liabilities are paid out over a long period of time.

A good job this chap opted not to swear or raise his voice (NSFW) :

I like his sentiment, but oh dearie me.

Some decent points badly made. I actually quite enjoyed the anger but the phrasing and structure was sloppy. A bit too rambling and too easy to dismiss. Give me a Tony Benn.

This chap reminds me of Pat Condell, the atheist chap. I agree with much of what is said but... it gets lost in the 'moaning in the boozer' vibe.

Wor Pat's lost the plot quite a bit lately.




Never mind his view of Palestine which conveniently forgets history.

You weren't kidding. It's a while since I saw any of his clips. I'm thinking that his anger is perhaps closer to home and all of his activisim/firebrand stuff is just a vehicle for it. How many people with 'passionately held views' are just misanthropes with a specialism?

Oh dear. Power-grabbing Soviet commissars. Pat's been reading too much Mail.

I was in a long queue at border control yesterday. Although it's frustrating to be held up for so long, what actually makes the experience unbearable is being surrounded by a number of Mail-reading types moaning about the wait (when they're not queue-jumping or pushing into the back of me, presumably in the belief that it will help us advance more quickly). Typically, the people behind me were blaming the staff, rather than, say, understaffing or extra vigilance. One woman went as far as to say, "And they end up letting everyone in anyway." The same woman also complained when a passport control person in one of the booths got up to fetch a small child who had wandered across the yellow line.

You either want 'tough' border controls, or you don't. You're either ready to pay for extra staff, or you resign yourself to queueing. You can't have it both ways.

Best of all, you could just stay at home.
