I noticed that every headteacher they interviewed on TV yesterday said the same thing.. "I'm striking to show support for my lower paid colleagues". A member of my family is a head teacher and she said the same thing on the phone to me, I'm afraid I lost it with her.
I also noticed on the news that after the strikers and marchers got to their destination, they all dumped their placards on the pavement and bu&&ered off home. Leaving their mess to be cleared up by some of the lowest paid council workers ... who weren't striking! How do they reconcile telling the kids in school not to drop litter, and then elave placards everywhere.
Sorry, some guys are now putting me in a comfy white canvas jacket and taking me to a room filled with foam..... /rantoff

I'm surprised we didn't have a wee war on here yesterday with the divided pools spatting back and forth

He used to be funny, but is now nothing more than an attention seeking, self parody... and a pr1ck

He tends to get slated for speaking what many are thinking PC or not?
Think of some of the interesting quotes from Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

the bloke is a complete f***wit whether he's opening his mouth or his trousers
Also bare in mind recent evidence to Leveson pointing out that the vast majority of the gutter press operate without leaving an office and either make it up or take it from somewhere else, whether factual or not, so will simply report an idealogical point of view to suit their argument.
There were reports elsewhere yesterday stating all placards were neatly placed in bins for recycling at the end of the march

What amazes me most is that there are still people out there that take what he says seriously!

Ahh of course, the TV pictures I saw last night must have been for a march in Iran then, odd that the placards had Iranain word like "pension", "NUT" and "UNISON" on them ... we've so much in common.
Placed in recycle bins my ar$e.

you've misunderstood my point - which was simply that the gutter press from both the left and right side of the fence will write whatever suits, irrespective of what the Mk1 eyeball can see.....

Sorry mate - the wonders of the internet eh? Second read, I can see what you mean!

It amazes me too! I just smile, laugh or cringe at lots of his controversial stuff, but never offended.
If he meant it seriously, then maybe people would have a point, but he doesn't!!

I'm not a fan exactly but come on peeps don't you realise by now he is just a total wind up merchant!
The day I start taking Clarkson seriously I will get my head examined. And all those that do should IMHO.

Oh yeah, totally agree, he's a wind up merchant and he loves nothing better than winding up all those tight wads who love nothing better to do than find something to whinge about. Oh, wait, Clarkson kinda falls also into this category

But nevertheless, he's still am all round n0b
Can't disagree.

And now the unions are going to spend some of their members' hard earned subscriptions on seeking legal opinion on whether they can take action against Clarkson.
