The same Ken Livingstone wants to ban cars completely, yet gets a taxi from Blackpool to London costing £260!

What a complete hypocrite!

Who voted for him for Mayor of London eh? He wants putting out to grass.

I thought a fair bit of it was all automated now, so the driver at the front just sits on his *** and watches for 'safety'?

Just my two pennorth, over 70% of the population would neither know nor care about a Tube drivers strike if it wasn't for all the news agencies being based there. Nobody forces you to live in the most overated town in the country, If you dont like it GET THE **** OUT:angry:
When are all you shandy drinking puffters going to realise that the rest of this country can't stand your constant, whining, self-important belief that the country ceases to exist beyond the M25.

Most of the reasons the rest of the world hate us can be laid at the door of you and your ancestors.

As was said at the time of President Ken's election, the part of the country that still generates an income couldn't give a toss


Rant over

Fair point.

But when are you thicko mine working, ale drinking, wife beating, Granada driving, stupid speaking, uneducated northerners going to realise that us southern puffters only go past Watford to either drain your little northern towns of money or **** all of your women!! - purely for our amusment!

Otherwise the north is insignificant to us rich southerners!!

I tell ya, those northern birds are hard to shake off, they want a new life in the South where the sky isnt always grey and thier dad doesnt have "special secrets" with them

ROTFL @ Tom
Pardon me, but being a thick, whippet ********, pipe smoking, Northern Idiot, Puffter Geography was never my strong point. However, doesn't residing in Surrey place you outside my arbitrarily created boundary? Therefore rendering your comments invalid

Ok, How about this, on strike days we come in to work but you all travel free. I'd be happy with that and I sure most would.
It's what they do in Australia. Carry on running the buses, but don't take any money for it. Soon gets results.

LOL @ Tom, just like us northerners, you may claim to never be wrong on here, but I bet it's a different story when you get home to the Missus

David, that is to good an idea to be allowed to run over here, the management would soon close it down

No, us southerners dont believe in Women staying at home in aprons cleaning, making tea and brushing off the doorstep, we belive in equal rights and stuff, therefore we are both always right! - can get quite annoying when playing Trivial Persuits!!

As for the Aussie non strike idea - well I can tell you that this - Ken Livingston was asked what he thought about the idea and he said this
"well, we would just sack them" - fair response!

It pisses me off that people/any people go on strike for more money, don't these people enquire about saleries before they take the job, if they don't like it find another....................
