The firefighters need our support, get them linked up with the anti-war movement and British troops are going nowhere.


Poll currently showing 56% support for firefighters.

Farmers need our support too!

No the farmers need our support more than the firefighters! Most farmers struggle to survive on 10,000 pounds a year and work up to 60 hour weeks, they are far more worthy of our support than the greedy firefighters who already earn 21,000 pounds a year for a four day week!

Low paid small-farmers, and our farm labourer comrades certainly deserve our support. However the rich farmers receiving millions in EU subsidies to waste good produce deserve fuck all.

Were not that simple are we.
No.

Divide and Conquer - Doesn`t work here.

We are all together in this.

Don`t start argue about farmers and firefighters.
When firefighters need support and solidarity
we give them support. When farmers need
support and solidarity we give them support.

The oldest trick in the book to create diversion
is to get the poor and ordinary people to
fight against each other.

Don`t waiste your time.

Don`t take the bait

Is this the same 'Harlequin' who quotes Lenin and gives links to the Socialist Party? Now s/he calls the firefighters greedy? I smell a big fat MI6 rat...
