Bob Crow gives a touch of crass to London
May 8, 2008 by dan
The following comment was made by one Bob Crow of the RMT in response to Mayor Johnson’s announcement that after 1st June, the consumption of alcohol on London public transport is to be banned.
“Perhaps the mayor will come out with his underpants on over his trousers like Superman one Saturday to show us how it should be done, and maybe tell a crowd of Liverpool supporters that they can’t drink on the train.”
I know I shouldn’t let this Lefty oik irritate me but he does. I don’t mind the rather pathetic joke about Superman, what I do mind it bringing up an incident that the Mayor of London has already apologised for (many time), even though it was not Mr Johnson’s hand that penned the offending article, it was (I am reliably told) Simon Heffer, Boris Johnson however took the heat as he was the Editor. So perhaps Crow could piss off and rile the RMT up about something else and let the Mayor get on with his job. I would make some sort of glib comment about perhaps Crow going to City Hall to show the Mayor how to do his job, but I fear the consequences of letting the man loose on London for even one hour.
