Here we go! here we go! here we go! again
Total is a French oil company who arbitrarily sacked contract workers on their site in humberside,an action which would have resulted in massive action by French workers if it took place in France,but thanks to the Thatcher anti union laws which the so called labour government to their shame did not repeal,Total are able to take this kind of arbitrary action,to their credit the workers have responded with a walkout,which if the union makes it official leaves the union in breach of the anti union laws,it should be noted that successive British governments have opted out of the social contract which is enforced in all other european countries,result is no protection in law for unions in this country,but every other european country has this protection through the social contract,the Conservatives like to project themselves as patriotic and against brussels having sovereignty over the British,but really they just do not want the social contract imposing here.

Yet more than half of the country voted for the crooked Labour politicians. It's their own fault. Don't vote for them. Take a stand like I do. If everyone did that, then soon, those that are taking such a stance are in the majority and can do something about it. But if people keep voting for the crooks, then they shouldn't complain.
That creates a vacuum and is what happened in the recent local elections,labour strongholds were taken over by the bnp nazi party,so it's not the answer,the answer is for party members to vote in genuine representatives of thep eople,and it would be very misanthropic to suggest they do'nt exist.
