I see that the BBC had comrade Tony Woodley of the Unite Trade Union on this morning. Oddly enough, they never asked Woodley about his visit to Cuba over the past few days to join in the tributes to Fidel.
CUBAN HEELS..

Why? Half the BBC would have been on holiday with him.
Who paid for Woodley’s trip; do we know. Did he fly BA?
They did ask Him.
Nicky the Cheese Campbell did on 5 live this am.
Woodley replied it was a holiday for his wife to recuperate post an operation. He was also questioned about a speech he made whilst out there.
Yes, it’s the first place most of us think to go to for recuperation after an operation. Or perhaps she was using Cuba’s world class hospitals?
Before I left Blighty 7 years ago a number of people said Campbell was a typical biased BBC leftie. I always thought he was an excellent broadcaster and only a bit biased at times and not just towards the left. Might it not be ideological blinkers that cause people here to condemn him
Re: Woodley.
Socialists and fruitcake leftists of all sects never found a murdering commie thug they didn’t love and support.
It does not surprise me that union thieves still go on these all-expenses paid junkets to faraway places.
No, what astounds me these days is that there are still so many working stiffs that still subscribe to all their bullshit, never realizing for even one moment that they are a waste of time. There is now more than enough government legislation to enable the settling of disputes, so their continued existence is puzzling.
BA are on the road to death. The thickest group of workers (the trolley dollies) are destroying the company whilst the smartest people (pilots and engineers) have already done a deal to try to save their jobs.
What an amazing coincidence that the Fidel party coincided with his wife’s need for recuperation.
Most people at the BBC would see nothing odd about a trade union leader (who is running a hugely unpopular and disruptive strike) going to pay obeisance to a communist dictator.
Nothing is too good for the workers, Comrade Anderson!
So it was a holiday for his wife. Who paid for the holiday then?
He’s on Daily Politics. After 22 minutes he hasn’t been interrupted once!
Well, he’s on again.
If the national broadcaster, with all its resources, doesn’t know what’s factual or legal, why do they persist in giving a single person a solo pulpit to spout what will inevitably be what ever they feel like, challenged by the incisive brains of a blonde or bouffant teleprompter reader. A person who seem incapable of arguing properly his view that a judge ruling on matters of law is an unprecedented class-based (what, Judges vs. the £40k class?) abuse by the establishment to crush the worker and flouting of ‘Yumin rights’, when it seems a bit less sitting on beaches and a bit more working n union offices on doing jobs may have served the members’ interest better.
It doesn’t have to be their direct opposition, who may be equally partisan. Though it was pointedly claimed that Willie Walsh wasn’t there. So we are treated to a segment of his opinion selected by the BBC editors being read out from a Times article.
So we are treated to yet another travel-addicted champagne socialist trying to spin a sob-story about poor, hard-working trolley dollies being unable to take their entire families on holidays like they used to, when I understand it was always a perk granted for those trying to make the company successful and not cripple its chances.
They’re addicted to tyranny.
