The arseholes can go on strike more often if it's like this0 -

Agency staff can easily step in at a moment’s notice to drive trains, maintain them, operate the signalling systems, ensure safety, lock and unlock doors and computers, cope with unexpected hitches, and so on and so forth.
Work in every part of the railway is a piece of resistance, anybody can do any of those jobs ‘at the drop of a hat’. Goodness knows why the trains aren’t running on a strike day when even Grant Schapps could do any job in the industry.5 -
Newsnight last night was a good one.
Somebody at last called out a liar to their face.6 -
Orpington station at 7:05 this morning, complete with BBC radio van.
Nice ride into London Bridge followed by a walk to the Euston Road. Nice weather for a long walk in the morning, I don't fancy that in the wet though.
Hopefully this dispute will be over shortly with a defeat for the tory scum.9 -
Only when hell freezes over would my wife strike.The Red Robin said:
Won’t be backing your wife when she strikes next then?1905 said:My wife who is a nurse in london, somehow needs to get from Bexleyheath each day for 7am. This will probably involve a start of before 5am and home for 9pm.
And for that reason, and the affect it will have on all our key workers, I cant get close to showing this strike any sort of support.0 -
Pissing me right off today, all these extra people now trying to cram onto my bus, at this time of days there's usually a dozen of us on it, tops. Today it's only a dozen stops in and completely full0

Admittedly I didn't leave very late this morning, think I strolled out the door about 9.15am but the Crossrail was completely empty and running on time every 5 mins. I thought there might be some people on it when I got on but it was completely dead. Really reliable.
I didnt bother going to the DLR station as they were every 10 mins as opposed to every 5 on this. I would go home via that if you are able. Last one to Abbey Wood is about 6.45pm i think he said.3 - Sponsored links:

I bet we don't get refunds back against season tickets and monthly cards.0

Let’s play guess the station - tough one, as little to go on - my guess is Bexleyheath ?cafcdave123 said:One day strike my arse you fucking shit 3 -
Yeah, I'd say it's definitely Bexleyheath.Lordflashheart said:

you both win a pint
*winnings can only be claimed in the Windsor pub by fenchurch street between 12pm and 1pm 22/06/20229 -
I was gutted when the 07:27 Petts Wood to Victoria came in on time.
I had my heart set on it being cancelled, walking home and being able to justify WFH on my allocated day in the office.
It was so packed by Penge East it ran fast all the way to Victoria and we got in 5 minutes earlier than normal. Like WTF.8 -
Running all the way - best have a defibrillator on hand as well just in case 😉cafcdave123 said:you both win a pint

No trains this morning on the Woolwich line, all cancelled so far, buses all snarled up under the Blackwall tunnel at the roundabout, and when you get to North Greenwich Station the tubes are all severely delayed too. Wish I had the option of working from home0

Bus from Bexleyheath to Woolwich, Elizabeth Line to Canary Wharf was very easy this morning. Had to do this as first train out of Bexleyheath was not until 7.421

It's not clear to many why either of them carries on when we all know they're both utterly dishonest2 -
You are correct it’s not clear to me. Give us the core of his lies then? His top three largest porkies for example?Billy_Mix said:

Yet to see Lynch get called out for being dishonest, not something that could be said for some politicians.

Mick Lynch is a very impressive operator, but one has to bear in mind that the RMT advised it’s members to vote leave without providing a solution as to how leave would manifest itself on the 300 mile land border between the UK and the EU.
So the RMT and Mick Lynch definitely have feet of clay.2
