RMT and London Underground Strikes

Generally speaking I have little sympathy with strikers; particularly, teachers and people who provide public services (such as the Royal Mail workers who refused to process BNP election leaflets). I have even less sympathy with the lazy, pathetic, selfish London Underground members of the RMT, led by the arch-militant Bob Crow, who have this week gone on strike.

I'm not fully aware of the reasons of the strike, so I apologise for my ignorance. But, I do know it only takes 6 weeks' training to become an Underground driver and you end up with a salary of £40,000 per annum! Ridiculous, especially compared with the wage of our soldiers, nurses and carers. For that reason, I see absolutely no moral basis for a strike from these over-paid train drivers in the middle of the nation's worst recession in over two decades!

They should all be sacked. Simple, and fair.
