Just as well she had somebody to look after her when she was in that rocking chair p!ssing her pants.

The problem with the mindset of looking after yourself is that you never quite get around to the second part, the looking after others bit.

HOUSING dipstick, we are discussing HOUSING.

Now what are your views (as in your personal views and not wiki soundbites) on the matter in debate?

Oh my apologies I thought we had moved on to discussing THATCHER, when the poster above regurgitated that THATCHER quote which is always taken out of context. But yes you didn't pick up on that....no....my apologies.

Bob Crow living in a council house?

Well it is obvious. He is representative of the hypocritical 'do as I say and not as I do' attitude which pervades the upper echelons of trade unions.

How is he not doing as he does?

He is living in a council house, the same house he moved into 30 years ago. He is a champion of council housing, he could have bought his council house for a pittance but chose instead to continue paying rent to the council.

How is that hypocritical?

Do you have the evidence that Crow has said that people who earn a decent whack should move out of their council house?

If not, I suggest you go and learn what hypocrisy actually means.

Now these unions would be the CBI, the BMA, the NFU, The Law Society, The Freight Transport Association, The Bankers Association etc., some of which are closed shops which means you can't work unless you are a member.

They are what you are talking about as well when you go into condemning union mode.

Oh and by the way

WHICH ECONOMY?

OK, open question, should Social Housing be based on NEED?
