- Revenue strikes are illegal in the UK
- Neil, your bio says you’re retired?
- Can someone please tell the man with the wallpaper made of gold that this is not a train drivers strike! #ToryRailStrikesBoris Johnson - "Train drivers are on £59,000 & some are on £70,000, fine if they want to go on strike... " But The train drivers aren't on strike.
00:00 - There are no train strikes today and the trains operate under a model devised, and implemented, by a Tory Government. Would’ve expected a Tory Councillor to understand that! No surprise that a Tory wants to shift responsibility though!
- Mick Lynch’s salary is decided by his members. When he was elected he suggested to his members that he should take a pay cut. They agreed. He doesn’t get any ‘bonuses’. He donates his salary on strike days to the dispute hardship fund. Let’s hope this sinks in.
- You are quite right Sharan. We are ALL worth so much more.
- 🎤 Richard Madeley “So you’re accusing the government of a bare faced lie on this?” 🗣 @RMTunion Mick Lynch “I am, yes.”
- Wrong and unnecessary is trying to give your mistress a highly-paid job then trying to cover it up! Stop deflecting and tell Shapps to talk to us about your #ToryRailStrikesThe strikes today are wrong and unnecessary.
00:00 - What, wait, did you think they would throw bricks at you or something? I think you may have been listening to too much Kay Burley! I suggest you stick to denying climate change!Strolled straight past the @RMTunion picket line for my train. A pretty pathetic effort from the strikers. Barely anyone bothered to show up, no screams of “scab”.
- How strange? He's been telling us he doesn't do face to face negotiationsReplying to @ChrisMasonBBCThe Transport Secretary Grant Shapps is also part of the delegation
- Partridge in a pear tree. The rant before Christmas. Call it what you will but enjoy and share Richard Madeley interviewing himself! #SupportRailWorkers
00:00 - Hi Ciaran, We did give notice... on the 14th July... a fact you well know as you've been posting on our timeline for weeks!Replying to @RMTunionI arrived to work 3 hours late because of the strike. I had no idea until this morning that the strike was on. Why cant they give notice? At least some of us put this country first
