You’ve probably heard the Aussie term “whining poms”? Now in London UNISON, we are blessed to have a Brit (or rather Brighton?) equivalent. The renowned red baiter, united trot maharishi and serial election loser has decided to whine and whinge about the inability of the disorganised “angry” middle aged men (and token angry women) to win any of the lay London regional council officer posts or a majority of the lay regional committee posts.
In London, real lay activists have got together and worked very hard to organise the forces of “light and reason” to win democratic internal union elections.
Whinge a-lot, of course takes no personal responsibility for the failure to even field a full set of trot candidates in last year’s regional committee elections. Instead this whining loser prefers the comfort blanket of blaming anyone and everyone for his mob’s failure to win such democratic elections. Except himself or his motley crew?
Look, as far as I am concerned, anyone can legitimately argue against a particular decision made by the regional committee, but to just slag off the whole internal union democratic structure just because you lost the elections is just plain low and even contemptible. But its not surprising. Just very,very sad.
