I'm not against unions per say, although I dont think we need them anymore. I'm against morons like Crowe, the bloke does nowt but make trouble to justify his own position

my mate worked on a union(read mafia) controlled site in new york
he said you could go to work in your going out clothes,they had state of the art changing rooms, hot showers, hair dryers,proper restaurant standard subsidised food

basically the best job he ever worked on laying bricks

but you had to pay $20 a week union subs
which went straight to the L******0 brothers and every cube of concrete they got $20 and they got kickbacks from basically everything on the site
so the whole job ends up costing 30% more than it should do
funny enough, no one stole from the site :;):

i understand what christ is saying but my experience of them is a load of little hitlers like scargill
power mad
and 20 years ago having to pay £4 a week for what to me seemed like nothing
LLL
"what,you want paying today??"
