Just resorting to swearing at people now. I believe he is the South Wales/South West Div Rep.

Just do as you're told OPG. How dare you question the party.

He’s the guy that makes a load of video clips.

Its no good full time officials kicking off when they're shown up for what they are. Members have asked time and time again to be shown everything that is shown to the likes of Ferret. There are no minutes of their secret meetings. They keep all the information to themselves to protect their cushy lives. The CWU is not a credible serious trade union. Put it out of its misery and leave.

It's a message some need to hear. How many on here suggested they were lying about the finances? Cooking the books ect ect. That would be illegal and plainly wasn't true.

I don't know him personally. I have to rely on the impression he gives off. This is not a good look.

Actually, no one suggested they were doing anything illegal. It was more a suggestion of creative accounts to fit a narrative. That is common practice and is not illegal. It’s also easier to do when you are a private company.

I still don't understand why, if the companies apparently on the verge of going under, would DK spend £3B of his own money buying IDS, why not wait until it went under and then buy if for a £1 like Poundland etc?

He has seen the accounts in their entirety. He’s not a stupid man.

The accounts made available for the CWU since it became a private company, are abbreviated accounts.

Though I suppose the difference is we're not full time paid officials of a union. Paid for by its membership that deserves more. This man works for us. He should not be talking to people this way. It's unprofessional and only further diminishes the unions standing and thus ability and effectiveness.

"Ralph Ferrett, stop saying the company has no money. Nobody believes that"

This was the comment to which he replied.

It's not his money.....he's borrowed most of it in the same way the Americans buy football clubs. Load it up with debt pay the interest payments while creaming off a nice return. Sell some big assets. Run it down into the ground. Walk away
It's a proven game plan.
