Labour losing Labour ?

So the Fire Brigades Union has severed its connections with the Labour Party. Well, it is a bit of the pot calling the saucepan, but on this one I can sympathise with them. This government and its poodles in local government have just about destroyed the goodwill of the fire services towards them, and it will not be long before they lose the rest of the trades unions' support as well.

This shower of complete incompetents who spent their university days smoking pot, rebelling against everything, digging up cricket pitches, chanting 'Better Red than Dead', and protesting anything else they didn't understand or approve of, are now destroying everything else they can get their claws on. Their arrogance is breathtaking, and their surrogates in the Civil Service, who proudly proclaim themselves "managers" without any understanding of anything they manage, are ten times worse.

One can only hope this trend continues and grows; the best outcome, of course, would be that the trades union members realise that voting in another direction altogether would actually be best for them, but at least a first step has been taken to show the current form of the Labour Party that real Labour disapproves.
