Definitely worth the six figure salary
Seems like she just trying to bait the guy into saying like “We will murder all scabs” to scare the old people
I love it when Person A calmly and clearly answer a question, and Person B who asks starts getting manic and defensive as if Person A is the crazy one
She tweeted that “he got a little flustered” in this interview.

Mick Lynch has dismantled every single fucking media goon that has tried to have a pop today. He’s done 40+ interviews on tv and radio like this and he smashed every single one of them.
Richard Madeley on GMB tried to do the old anti-communism
Big fan of him calling out lying politicians to their face.
I don’t even know who you are :gigachad:
This government of billionaires tell everyone else to tighten their belts while they’re raking it in :porky-scared:
It becomes so incredibly obvious what a farce media has become when you put someone in front of the cameras who doesn’t give a fuck about keeping a long-term media career. He makes them all look like idiots.
EDIT: I should add that Kay’s line of questioning in the original clip is a complete load of bollocks too.
Her claim that they’ll bring in agency workers is nonsense. Where are they going to get 40,000 workers who know how to run Britain’s rail lines from overnight in these conditions ?
Does anyone have 40,000 experienced railway workers lying around doing nothing? Do they fuck. You gonna run and repair trains and railways on day 1 temps with no training? No. You wanna get European workers to do that immediately after the country just voted for Brexit to stop that? Good luck with the fallout from that one.
Holy shit him just calling that Tory politician a liar over and over is giving me energy
Real opposition works. People like it and people resonate with it.
The tories are on the backfoot here, they miscalculated that people would be against the strikes because the country was hurt by covid but instead what it’s done is make it really easy for people to shrug this off. Working class people are used to being disrupted right now, covid disrupted them many many times more than this strike, people have just stayed at home, there’s no road chaos, there’s no train station chaos, everything is just empty. People are chilling and they’ve absolutely failed at this early stage to turn public opinion against this strike.
They should have waited 5 days for the public to get a bit antsy before starting their campaign against it but they’ve fucked it up now. Country will rally behind the strikers and probably won’t change their opinions until a good offer is on the table. I think 5% is where they’ll settle.
Very much this. It’s a consequence of the Tories basically having no political opposition. They’ve gotten used to just being able to bulldoze through everything and they just couldn’t hold themselves back from laying into the unions preemptively. The media will support them unconditionally of course, but they’ve overplayed their hand here I suspect.
The contempt just dripping from that politician’s eyes at being called a liar under his breath each and every time he should be is fucking invigorating
Bodied
This is a great collection. I’ve been avoiding this stuff as much as possible beyond a few snippets on the radio. Your last point is spot on too. You wouldn’t be able to find thousands of retail workers to just waltz in and take over entire stores, never mind bloody rail engineers and drivers.
Yeah you can’t even get the drivers, let alone the people that walk the lines every single day looking for and repairing faults, or signal operators, or communicators, who’s going to operate the thousands of switches? It’s a level of nonsense that only deserves ridicule on the face of it. Entertaining the idea that it’s plausible requires being utterly misinformed about the reality of how a nationwide railway network operates. It requires the audience to be literally uninformed.
The media are disinformation.

Edit: Having now watched the videos I’m back to :panting:
lmao
if i got hit with this and i was a spokeswoman id just be too sarcastic. guess its good im not a spokeswoman for a union
“lady we’re gonna slaughter them and eat their corpses on live TV and beat cops walking by on the street with the femurs of the strikebreakers!”
You probably couldn’t do that in Br*tain because their media is so deranged they’d report it as true
