A bit more background.    I live and work in Coventry. I’m proud to raise my family here and call this city my home. But I’ve also been on strike since January, and I need to tell you why.

That's been coming for a while.

Been quite impressive , Sharon Graham.

 

Her winning the GS role in Unite and her subsequent actions are a salutary essay on the shitness of the politics and the media bubble in this country.The Labour right and the likes of the Indy / Guardian massively pushed the nauseous Coyle and deliberately ignored his past demeanours just because he was Starmer's mate. The left and the likes of Skwawkbox and Canary rallied at first behind the shifty Beckett and then grudgingly behind Turner. Graham was the only candidate to realise that members mainly wanted representation and aid in the workplace and the politics aspect was not a major worry for most. She was ignored completely during the campaign and her election was a slap in the face for both sides.

 

Ironic that for all the hatred of 'Red' Len , he was still pouring in funds to all Labour leaders throughout his tenure whereas Graham has just pulled the plug immediately.

I think McCluskey fundamentally believes in the Labour movement and in the unions being the backbone of that. I think he also believed that by continuing to financially back Labour that the union movement could eventually break through and have a greater influence on the Labour movement.

 

Graham on the other hand has just realised early on (in her opinion at least) that Labour is swinging to the right again, and that the unions are going to find themselves sidelined as was the case under Blair. She obviously feels there's no longer a point in throwing good money after bad. As a Unite member I agree with her.

I gave this twat the benefit of the doubt for too long. I was expecting some 'forensic' rattling of the tories but lately he's been shite, especially considering the amount of ammunition. Making Raynor bend over and apologise the other month was a fucking disgrace. He's fucked it by adding Yvette Cooper to his front bench. She will take them lot to the fucking cleaners across that room

The entirety of Young Labour about to be expelled from the Labour Party…

 

 

 


 


This isn’t us Vs them, it’s us Vs us.

 

I don’t agree with this, but I can objectively understand it, as much as it is unpalatable.

 

Collective message, collective views.

 

Thats how we get these cunts out.

He’s already fucked it up by calling on Johnson to apologise for the party, not resign.

 

Meanwhile, unofficial leader of the opposition, Ian Blackford…

Oh you know Blackford won’t hold back

but he says the same thing every week and fuck all happens. There needs to

be a bigger power in play here. The police won’t do a fucking thing though
