I presume we will all show solidarity behind our fellow brothers,in the struggle for fairness and justice through strike action.

Are we getting behind all those workers who's livelyhoods are in mortal danger from the endless price hikes in fuel.

I'm sure all strikers will appreciate a bit of tea, sympathy,and support from all you activists. Turn up at any fuel depot on wednesday.All TUC executives welcome.

i wont be supporting them klf if its organised by the twats who did the last one.
The organisers likened it to the Jarrow march where all the marchers were on the dole, lived in poverty and did not turn up in mercedes, volvos and bmws.
Lots of the fuel protesters were also involved with smashing through miners picket lines in 1984.

sorry - i still havnt worked out yet how to add links but if you put in jarrow marchers and the fuel protesters into google theres loads of stuff there.

And exactly how is this a strike?

Poeple will be picketing fuel depots,in order to defend their right to make a decent living.

Never cross a picket line

There no such thing as an illegal strke

Sound familiar???

Can this all go over onto the fuel protesters fuck off thread or is this getting onto the legitamacy of one group to strike over anothers?

Are you ultimatly getting at which group is more media freindly, sacked asian poor gate gormet workers or white rich bmw driving company owners?

So does one group deserve our sympathy and the other our derrision?
Is mass empathy the sole criteria for a legitimate strike?

KLF is this where this thread is leading?

KoJ, the KLF is rattling our cages.

KLF,

It's not a strike, it's an action. They can call it what they want. Never cross a picket line.
