"I see absolutely no reason why any striking teacher should be paid."
Fine - if those who milked the country dry and brought about the present situation lose their massive bonuses - backdated, and the politicians who backed them were prohibited from holding office, and all politicians who dishonestly claimed expenses faced legal proceedings..... ain't gonna happen though.
It seems that there are those among us who are happy that those who played no part in the mess we are in should pay for it to be cleared up and be prepared to bend over and be shafted - again - isn't it always the way?
