Re: Bonds

Then a Corbyn Gov would Nationalise the project making those bonds worthless.

Didn't you read his policy on re-instating Clause 4?

With that back in place his party will become unelectable. The workforce has moved on since the 1930's/1940's/1950's/1970's and 1980's.

Far fewer feel the need to be in a Union and to be honest with some of the retro throwbacks currently in charge of them it is no surprise.

I was in a Trade Union once. I had to be because of the Closed Shop it ran. Normally Apprentices were exempt from having to join the Union. Not this place. Full dues as well.

My Father was a staunch Trade Unionist. He joined up when he started working at 'The Vauxhall' in Luton circa 1932/33. He never felt the need to join the Labor Party.

Why Union leaders seem to assume that their entire membership support the goals of the Labor Party was quite beyond him. In the end he tore up his Union Card because he was a Liberal PArty member.

As a result, I've not felt the need to join a union or a political party in the last 40 years. I don't see that changing anytime soon.
