Alan Johnson was never anything other than a self-interested liberal. We thought Tuffin was bad, but Johnson was no friend of ours. But Labour has never been a socialist party.
Plus the fact even if Labour had socialist leanings it is still a capitalist party so will always defend capital before workers.

So true. And that's why public schoolboys like Blair join.
The Industrial Workers of the World. The union whose members never scab!
"The working class and the employing class have nothing in common."
Lets hope the MPs are switched on enough not to believe this one sided nonsense.
Not content with trying to undermine public support hes now trying to undermine support from MPs( If we have any!)
This is disgracefull behaviour from Mr Crozier, hes pissin off an awful lot of his employees !
all well and good folks we can chat all day but what are hq doing to win this spin war ive heard nothing yet apart from what they send us and that is preaching to the converted,this battle is not going to be won by strikes but by wide felt public oponion,when the 10pm news is doing headlines on the true facts of the string deal then we will have the juice to win because those two arent going to have many friends cueing up to get egg on their faces
THE LATEST CWU RELEASE SAYS THE UNION ARE EMBARKING ON A PUBLIC CAMPAIGN. SENT AN EMAIL TO DAVE WARD ASKING THE NEXT STEPS FROM THE UNION. HE REPLIED SAYING THEY'RE TALKING TO MP'S AND THE GOVERNMENT AND HE'S FORWARDING THE LETTER SENT TO LEIGHTON TO THE PRESS. QUESTION IS, WILL THE PRESS PRINT IT ALL OR JUST CHOICE CUTS.
Crozier can send propaganda out to anybody he likes , it still won't alter the fact that without postalworkers there's
no postal network in this or any country. If he doesn't want trouble, he knows what he must do. TREAT US FAIRLY.
That message should be enough for both parliament, and the general public.

Who are the 'union sponsored' MP's? I've had a look but I can't find anything about it on the CWU website or theyworkforyou.com which gives MP's expenses etc. There's bound to be one representing a Scottish seat that I can write to!
