Out, Out, Out . . .

The words of the NUT this week. [National Union of Teachers]

Out on strike, comrades!
Out of our schools - stop army recruitment! The “oppressive, fascist tool” of the West.
Out of their box!

Do they sit and watch episodes of “On the Buses” and “’til Death us do part” in the bar outside of their conference hall? I have not heard this kind of comedy since the 1970’s!

The news items lead by describing them as “Britains Largest Teaching Union”. Soon to be “Britains Most Irrelevant Union”. They obviously have far too much time to think about how down-trodden they are. Was there a motion for them to forego their numerous holidays to work for the cooperatives in Cuba?

I consider myself socialist by persuasion - not a dinosaur. These people used to be dug up fossilised by the Dinosaurs.

And the beards, the beards!! Every man and woman comrade sported one.
