An insult begets an insult. I didn't think it was funny. There's nothing
here they won't already know - and probably use.

I only react, I don't instigate.

I didn't think so.

If the media could prove their claims they certainly would to get more
mileage out of it. It always sells more papers/gets better ratings to
attack the Unions and Workers, no matter how false the claims are.

If WB/non-WB was relevant then there's a possibility the guard could
have prevented it.

In English please.

There's still a loss of a position. They only positions they create are
for more non-income producing parasites in head offices.

You want them to sack the filthy scabs?

Planes crash, not airlines. I'm talking about the whole country
crashing.
