THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

For all the Tom Winnifrith fans, a complete character assissination of Bob Crow:


RIP Bob Crow of the RMT – You will not be Missed in the slightest (apology for earlier article)

Tuesday 11 March 2014


Share this article with your comrades in revolutionary capitalism







I have been panned for criticising Bob Crow who died today. In that vein I apologise for that piece and have amended my original piece with the change in italics. See below.

You are not meant to say bad things about those who have just died…but for fat hypocritical selfish bastards like Bob Crow, the head of the tube driver’s union, the RMT, one can make an exception. Crow died of a heart attack this morning.

Crow lived the high life as a Union boss. He was paid a huge wage and his expenses bill for fine wining and dining was a disgrace. His lifestyle did not exactly show solidarity with the workers.

Moreover under his leadership, the tube drivers have held Londoners to ransom for years, blocking change when change was needed and negotiating wages which are thoroughly unjustifiable. By 2015 a tube driver ( who takes just six weeks to learn his or her trade) will, for a 35 hour week with generous holidays be getting a package worth £52,000 a year. That is just shocking and cannot be justified.

Crow has extracted such a package by regularly holding Londoners to ransom with strike action which causes misery for us all. And then of course he also launched strike action for purely political purposes, often on days when England were playing a soccer match, so the drivers could see the game.

While trousering £150,000 a year plus grotesque expenses Comrade Crow lived in a council house paying a trivial rent. That meant he was even richer and a really poor person was deprived of social housing. In practice, such was the solidarity this fat, selfish, greedy arsehole showed with the working classes. I apologise for omitting this fact from my earlier piece.

Britain is better off without this blackmailing bastard who grew fat thanks to inflicting misery on the rest of us. While his family may miss him and have my sympathies I would be a hypocrite if did not say that I – and 99% of the population – will not miss him at all.

PS I see that uber-scumbag George Galloway is to write a glowing tribute to Comrade Crow in the Guardian later today. That says it all.

I would say the same of Bob crow as Tom Winnifrith. Both surplus to requirements.

I see it is the 25th anniversary of the miners' strike. There is a program this evening about the strike on ITV at 22:35. A date to celebrate.

goldfinger - 12 Mar 2014 19:42 - 38101 of 81564

Winifrith is heading for the funny farm and as been for a while.

It wont be long now.

Check this thread out and youl see what I mean.

Perhaphs hays or Manuel can put him up for the night and take him off the street.

Re: Tom Winnfrith

His Gold Fund done very well for a time , but the wheel's started to fall off and he kept going thinking a high Gold price would save him. The US printing vast sums of money didn't mean the Gold price would reach a all time high in real terms.

goldfinger - 12 Mar 2014 20:11 - 38104 of 81564

Thats why he got the sack Alders, I heard it from the bosses mouth Jim Mellon on twitter.

He got his pizza joint as pay off for his resignation and they had to bring in directors to uncover the scale of the loss and mess.

How on earth he dare have a go at Bob Crow is beyond me.

aldwickk - 12 Mar 2014 20:38 - 38105 of 81564

goldie

Just watched Tom's Video , funny with all that's going on in the Ukraine he didn't mention any Gold shares to buy

goldfinger - 12 Mar 2014 20:45 - 38106 of 81564

Alders he looks like a tramp. And hes getting worse and worse.

Just letting himself go.

Im sure his sack at Rivington as effected him mentaly. Shame he was once upon a time a good stock picker then got in with the wrong crowd and cant manage a folio to save his life.

aldwickk - 12 Mar 2014 22:21 - 38107 of 81564

Goldie

goldfinger - 12 Mar 2014 23:00 - 38108 of 81564

Is the bull called Wavey Davey or Nigel??


Fred1new - 13 Mar 2014 09:33 - 38111 of 81564

This is probably more like Nige and Dave!

goldfinger - 13 Mar 2014 09:51 - 38112 of 81564

WHAT.........no front page Tory scandals today.

Must be a first.

cynic - 13 Mar 2014 10:01 - 38113 of 81564

good morning old chap ..... good to see you have recovered a sense of humour

Fred1new - 13 Mar 2014 10:02 - 38114 of 81564

GF,

When reading the Nigel case I am beginning to understand what attracts Manuel and the Hazy One to the torrid party!



---------------

Strange if somebody on the dole "diddle" the his "unemployment claims" he would probably end up behind bars.

But nicking money as follows doesn't:
Strange !

But suppose it is because the private sector is more efficient and cost effective?

Troubled security firm G4S has agreed to repay £108.9m plus tax to the UK government after overcharging on contracts to tag offenders.

The Ministry of Justice said that if criminal charges are brought, it "would consider" if further money is due.
