Privatisation was always a con. We're spending as a country more in subsidies to rail firms in the 2020s than we ever did when it was British Rail and we've, arguably, got a more expensive service and in recent times a much worse one.

[@yorkiegilly4355]

But I am an age that remembered what happened with Triumph motorcycles and Leyland ,they had some slick union negotiators in their Unions ,but like many other British unions they priced themselves out of a job .At the time I worked in the biggest foundry in Europe in Sheffield as a Engineers Union rep. and the people above kept saying "it"s O.K. we will win" and the company sold to an American business and the main man came to the factory ,stood on some steps and told us straight - "are you going back or shall I close the place down"? and the place is now Meadowhall Shopping Center ?. My eldest son worked at Keeton"s steel in Sheffield ,similar story ,but the longest strike in history which lasted over 7 years ,they closed that place too ! . Railway tickets are already at a silly price ,so you can bet ,in a few years our Railways will be so much scrap metal . Will Mick Lynch still be revered - then ?.

[@hg82met]

Fact: Tories have spent more money (by funnelling tens of millions of pounds of taxpayers' money to private train operators for every day there was a strike) than it would have taken if they met the strikers' demands. Which goes on to show, dragging this process along was always a political choice, and not an economic one. Same can be said of the way they're not even negotiating with junior doctors. They simple don't care if patients come to harm or doctors leave the profession or move to other countries.

[@headgirlblues]

Absolutely. After years of watching where money flows and under what conditions, a conclusion might be reached that a wrecked country is simply easier to loot. Mick Lynch and more like him understand the issues, both currently and historically, and are making it clear just who the wrecking crew is.

It's not about being intelligent or competent.

People like Jacob "I've always loved money!" Rees-Mogg are not fit to run a bath, let alone the country, but Nanny told him he was a special boy, which is why he feels he's entitled to ruin the lives of the peasantry.

I'll say something else that would have The Daily Mail and the less than average Tory MP spitting in their Tea and calling me an enemy of the Nation or whatever; Banning Industrial action NEVER stopped Industrial action. It actually makes it more likely, less predictable and potentially more damaging and even violent to have legislation that denies the right to withdraw Labour. As Mick Lynch suggested in this committee, people can get very creative when faced with legal obstacles to Industrial action.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

Tory anti strike laws should be reversed if Labour forms a government but it will not happen, of course. Just like Blair did not reverse them 1997- 2010. Weak unions are key to the neoliberal project precisely to keep wages down so the rich can prosper at the expense of the workers. Yet even if they were reversed in some parallel universe there is so little solidarity in many sectors of the UK economy and many unions are so poorly led that it would be unlikely to make much difference to wages and conditions of service.

[@secondtimearound2539]

80s Music; It's more concerning that there is little solidarity between people (except for our 'betters' ofc). Instead there is more division than ever and it works, just how the Tories and the rest of the Establishment have manipulated it - for centuries, not just the past 44 years. Only people, en masse, can make a difference by standing up for each other so, probably won't happen in my lifetime but that's no excuse not to try and keep trying.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

@@secondtimearound2539 I have believed in solidarity for most of my 53 years but I see no point any more in that it is like pushing water uphill and those that the left wants to help often do not want that support, instead choosing to believe the lies and propaganda of the right via (anti) social media and the right wing press. The problems do go beyond the last forty three years without doubt but the pernicious effects of neoliberalism as a tool to widen and entrench inequality in the interests of the rich are the result of a systematic policy that is an ideological crusade to wipe out any alternative political positions that do not accord with its precepts. Plurality of thought is the enemy of neoliberalism- it is just as dogmatic as adherence to communism was in the twentieth century. The workers have been sold out by the Labour Party, most of the unions and each other. Thatcher converted Labour to neoliberalism and described 'new' Labour as her greatest achievement. We are living in the dystopian future the left predicted in the 1980s- the tragedy is that she was right in her claim about Labour.

The UK has some of the most talented and intelligent people on the planet, yet, not one of them sit in government 🤦‍♂️

[@colincrispin7239]

I wouldn’t talk to the MP’s as this only gives them ideas on how to alter their proposed law. I absolutely stand with Mick and his colleagues.

[@stevenredpath9332]

Mick Lynch: calm, rational and cutting.

Managers need union representation too - they also need protection from this madness! (Assuming they don't already have representation)

[@stephenwabaxter]

It is incorrect to assume that Unions are always necessary.

[@The_BenboBaggins]

When working people want to be treated fairly, history suggests that unions are absolutely necessary* I've been very lucky in my career in that I have worked for some good companies, and decent managers/owners - even so, I would support union representation for all levels of workers because I think it can be beneficial in good times, and in bad (if done properly)

Given the fact that P&O this week found out they will suffer no consequences whatsoever after their literal breaking of the law. Even after all the promises the likes of Schapps and Bojo made - be under no doubt, this bill will pass

[@secondtimearound2539]

John Clark; Yes, that was disgraceful but not unexpected. Shows the lack of care thse criminals have for our country and its people.

[@malcolmturner214]

Mick lynch for PM , someone normal running the country for the Normal people , wouldn’t that be nice 🙏

[@cdean2789]

Mick lynch knows his stuff.

[@robertstrong6798]

I’ve lost track of how long this has been going on for , it’s crazy

[@jonsmith5058]

Amazing to see how passionately people support Mick yet struggle to even describe Starmer or what that slimy backstabber stands for. Keir thinks he needs to be bland and centerist, no, we want a real, passionate, left wing leader. Embrace Mick, it’ll be the smartest thing any Labour leader could do right now.

[@ai-d2121]

Yeah. Whatabouttism from a Tory Troll.

[@jonsmith5058]

@@ai-d2121 you think I’m a Tory Troll…? Like what…? I hate the Tories, what the fuck are you on about?

[@animationsilo]

Thank all the stars and gods for this man 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@stephenlivesey6600]

Brilliant Mick ! Now just remind me , who is it that sticks up for "hard working families" ? Who ? Rich E Sunak , you say ? Really?🤔

[@Yossarian_Lives73]

Love Mick Lynch, make him president after getting rid of the royals
