    What a piss take. Polls are showing they lose more and more support with every new strike.

    Yes, they should just say bo!!ocks to it - regardless of the merits of their case. I'll bet they are enjoying their free time.

    Which is stupid really, if someone supported them why would they stop supporting them when noting has changed.

    Yeah, people fighting against real-time pay cuts and having their terms and conditions worsened are taking the piss. FFS

    I think anybody who wants to stand up and protect their living standards and employment conditions is a raving loony lefty. All these workers should be thankful they've got any kind of job at all. In fact they might as well work for free. Militant nobs.

    Polls show that they are going on strike. 90% support.

    Support them but that royally fcks up my weekend. Got tickets to see The Tempest at Shakespeare's Globe on March 18th. Driving to London on the day of a train strike, absolutely brilliant!
