Post by jaredf »

Hello Folks,
Another disgruntled Postie here with my favourite question.
Why does the CWU still give money to the Labour Party.

Because Billy and Dave are still members.
The Industrial Workers of the World. The union whose members never scab!

Welcome to RMC jaredf :wave We still have alot of support from a Lot of Labour MPs who are as pissed of with Brown as we are,its not Labour at the top is it, New Labour is in charge :sad: but with MPs like Kate Hoey and the 2 guys at the London rally and Tony Benn we have a good voice in parliament and must support them.

Hello folks,
Thanks for all your replies.I have never paid my political levy opting out was the first thing that I did when I joined the union.As a socialist I can't support the Labour Party in any way or form.
This arguement about Old Labour and new labour doesn't wash with me.It is all New labour with the interest of big business at heart.The labour party with strong a working class ethos has long gone.I think you will find that Tony Benn is no longer a member of the labour party.
Ted Heath was once asked if he would have fitted into the labour party of TORY Blair.To which he replied he wouldn't have as he was to far to the left.Says it all really.
Keep the red flag flying
