London Underground

[nagerous]

Some people might like to get a train to work
Or drive in in a Beamer or a merc,
Some guys like to travel in by bus,
But I can't be bothered with the fuss today
I'm going to take my bike,
Coz once again the Tube's on strike.
The greedy bastards want extra pay
for sitting on their arse all day
even though they earn 30K .
So I'm standing here in the pouring rain,
Where the f*ck's my fucking train?

London Underground
London Underground
They're all lazy fucking useless cunts
London Underground
London Underground
They're all greedy cunts I want to shoot them all with a rifle.

All they say is "Please mind the doors",
and they learned that on the two day course,
This job could be done by a four year old.
They just leave us freezing in the cold.
What you smell is what you get
Burger King and piss and sweat
You roast to death in the boiling heat,
With tourists treading on your feet
and chewing gum on every seat,
so don't tell me to "Mind the gap"
I want my fucking money back.

London Underground
London Underground
They're all lazy fucking useless cunts
London Underground
London Underground
They're all greedy cunts I want to shoot them all with a rifle
LaLaLaLa
LaLaLaLa

The floors are sticky and the seats are damp,
Every platform has a fucking tramp,
But the drivers get the day off when we're all late for work again,

London Underground
London Underground
WaWa Wankers , They're all Wankers ,
London Underground
London Underground

Take your Oystercard, and shove it up your arsehole.

Class traitor.

[brooksieb]

Nagerous got a boner because of the vast amount of multi culturalism down there.

[2dimes]

You should just walk, then you'll put them out of a job. Show them you don't need them.

[Rustovitch]

Every time their union decides to strike out of pure greed they should just be billed the estimated cost to the city. That will sort them out.

[Balsiefen]

Maybe they should hire the tramps as train drivers?

[Rustovitch]

Maybe they should hire the tramps as train drivers?

No just replace them with computers.

[spurgistan]

No just replace them with computers.

Tramps are probably cheaper. And more environmentally friendly.

[Minister Masket]

Classic song.

Another pathetic racist remark from our pet Nazi, I bet your kids really admire that fine intellect of yours

What, the tramps ?

[Skittles!]

Class traitor.

Flash!

Hardly for pure greed. This is a critical battle in the war to stop bosses and the government making ordinary people pay for the a crisis created by those at the top of society. The fight is not just for wages (though the pathetic increase offered actually works out as a pay cut even in todays period of low inflation) London Underground is cutting 1,000 jobs while Transport for London could slash 3,000 jobs. They want to weaken the RMT and push through a series of spending cuts to help pay the bill for the failure of the privatised Metronet infrastructure company.

Class traitor.

Flash!

Hi mate, good to see you again - I've been lurking here for a while but not posting.

[2dimes]

Here here flash. I can't believe how snowed people are with the anti Union bologna sandwich.

But that guy gets huge money and doesn't even have a high school deploma.

Yeah because education makes people so superior intelectually. I have to laugh at people I continually meet that have a PHD in what ever but can't change a flat tire on their car safely. Yet the guy that built my car is way beneath them, and they would not speak to him.

It's becoming like India when Ganhdi was around, everyone in your place now, you don't have enough education so you get minimum wage and are not as valuable to society. "What you're in a union so you can afford to have a wife at home with the kids while you go to work? Not on my watch!"

Train drivers are absurdly overpaid and occupy a fairly redundant position, and people are sick of their strikes disrupting what would otherwise be a decent service. I've not much tolerance for them.

I doubt it, but you're going to think whatever you want. I'll give an example of reality here though.

Union electrician makes aprox $35/hour.

Rat bag electrician $38.

With hard fought benifits won decades ago when the Union was effective union guy costs the company $60/hour the extra money goes to medical insurance, pension and education funds so the ignorant high school drop out can take courses on how to install things like 'fire alarms'.

The corparate boot licking, wal-mart made in china buying, non-big three domestic driving member of the general public says. "60 bucks an hour? what a greedy union guy!! Unfair, I don't get paid that much and I have a PHD."

P.S. I went for a beer friday and it was $6.75 per bottle, a pair of blue jeans is $70 and it cost $60 to fill my blazer with gas. I'm so greedy to want to afford nice things for my family and I.


Once again, prove they are not needed and teach them a lesson by walking to where you're going.

Your example is not very persuasive, train drivers earn £30,000 on entry, doing a job that is largely automated. That is more than soldiers, policemen, teachers, shelf stackers, shop assistants...

Unions are all well and good, but not when they they blackmail overly high salaries for obsolete jobs.

Policemen and teachers both union positions. Which side are you on here?

I'm happy you've decided I'm right though and are walking instead of taking the train which is obsolete.

Let's leave out the soldiers as niether of us has been one and you have not worked with military agencies.

Soldiers make a lot more in benefits, believe me. (Even if most medical bills are caused from our profession...)

We also cost the government a whole lot more than we're actually paid, in supplies and training.

Worth every penny! Anyone that says you cost too much should leave the island here. Yes I am well aware that I am Canadian and I still know you are protecting my giant, burger eating, lazy ass as a member of the American military.

I know our own guys are excellent and anyone messing with them would be in for a nasty surprise. I also know that you guys have the reputation that keeps a lot of bad guys from trying any fancy stuff.

Thank you.

Your first line does not really tally with what I have said.

Your second line is intentional misrepresentation.

Your third line is arrogant pressumption, it is not your place to state whether or not I've had a military career.

[2dimes]

The first line was me pointing out you basically are saying, The union train drivers are greedy because they make more money than the union teachers and union policemen. Unions are all well and good unless they are effective.

There's nothing more for me to say to the experts on everything.

I never said any of that...

I think you underestimate the importance of the job of London Underground staff. They are responsible for the safety of thousands of passengers every day and if you've ever lived or worked in London (or even visited) you'll know how vital the tube is for London to function. I detest your argument that the wages of these workers should be held down just because other professions are similarly undervalued. We should fight for all professions to get a fair wage - not play one against another. Solidarity between the workforce is needed. 30K is not a lot of money to support a family in London. And as for it being a redundant profession I would put it to you that if there was any redundant workers out there it was the military. What use is it in this day and age? To advance the US and Britain's imperial aims? I think we need to re prioritise.
