Title: It's that man again (Brother Crow)
Post by: JayMac on September 15, 2010, 09:19:23
I have just watched Commie Bob on the BBC News Channel being interviewed about the Governer of the Bank of England, Mervyn King, addressing the TUC.

Bob said that he would be boycotting Mr King's address and went on to say that if this was Colombia, the unions wouldn't allow the head of the state bank anywhere near a congress. If he did show up he was likely to be taken away and tortured!  ::)

Quite what relevence Colombian unions and banks have to the TUC is beyond me. Perhaps a bit of an Inquisition is what Commie Bob wants to happen to Mr King and other high ranking bankers.

Bob Crow; you are worth every penny of your salary if only for comedy value!

As of 2009, Bob Crow's basic salary at RMT was ^94,747; a 12% increase from the previous year despite the ongoing recession. His entire pay package with bonuses and pensions was ^133,183; on top of this he claimed ^9,989 in expenses and ^2,376 in travel costs, taking his total income to ^145,548.[19] When asked to comment on these figures, Transport Minister Norman Baker stated:

^ Bob Crow talks about fairness but this self-styled man of the people should be judged by his actions. Crow seems more interested in feathering his own nest than working with Government to create an efficient cost effective rail service.''
