| Rubbish.

No he's quite correct. Unless you happen to be "one - eyed faithful"

They're paid by the workers to do their bidding, not any polical parties

| Absolute rubbish!!! So the likes of the small unions of the ilk of the
| B.L.F. and Painters and Dockers "looked after their members" (yeah right!!
| Onya Normie G.). Whilst the C.F.M.E.U. and Maritime Union rip off the
