COMRADES UNITED

Did you see this?

The threat of industrial action by BBC journalists and technicians during the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee weekend in June has been withdrawn. Unions had balloted for a strike over a “derisory” pay deal. But the NUJ, Bectu and Unite unions have now released a joint statement with the BBC saying they had agreed to “key principles” on pay, performance ratings and redeployment.

I wonder why UNITE get such an easy ride on the BBC…..?

    Go on Beeboids, do your worst and go on strike!
    Be my guest.
    Then I can watch the Jubilee on ITV or Sky News and Britons who wish to can celebrate in peace without Bon Pensant BBC nourished 4th form debating society champions banging the drum of republicanism.

    Even BBC ARABIC (of Mecca-facing, East Wing of Broadcasting House, London) is not on strike at moment.
