By decimated of course I mean ‘took over as admin, before banning everyone and leaving’.

I am the human virus. And also kinda bored.

I just joined a ‘Stop crazed CWU left wing Dinosaurs11!!!eleven!1 group on facebook and decimated it.

On your slogan… well, I say that graffitied in two places in manchester. The first time I thought, ‘why the fuck should I’, and the second time was in a pub toilet, where someone had written next to it ‘I’m watching you, student cunt’.

Be warned. ;o)

But Renegade, I thought that dockers (longshoremen) in San Francisco had taken a day’s strike action against the Iraq war. (Or have I got my facts wrong?) That would be illegal in Britain.

In the US the labor laws are much more repressive. Everyone would be in jail for mentioning a wildcat strike, or an email conspiracy.

It’s a rubbish deal, Kit.

First, it will be interesting to see what happens if the leadership can’t sell the deal to the members. Can posties rely on them to re-enter negotiations to hammer out a better settlement?

Second, whither the political fund? Moves continue afoot against the funding of Labour in the unions. For those opposed to disaffiliation, it’s incumbent upon them to illustrate how CWU members are getting value for money.
