Subject: RE: BS: Blind stupidity - TUC Congress
Here's my view. As a former Union Official, I have no time for Bob Crow and his call for Civil Disobedience. However, I have listened carefully to what the more sane element of the TUC is saying. There is no doubt that this coalition government is Tory Based and is reverting back to type. Leopards dont change their spots despite what Cameron & co say. The philosophy is to provide a means for big (and I mean really big) business to flourish and make huge bonus payments to its directors -many of whom are members of this government- at the expense of the less well off who, by tradition the torys see as a burden to their pland and are only tolerated as little as can be got away with.
Its the workers who create the wealth, but all business has to be managed and properly run for the benefit of all. The same should apply to government regardless of political colour. I actually voted Lib Dem, but never believed I was voting in a Tory government.
