Taxi Driver Online

Apprentices could not strike. Well they couldn't at British Leyland in the 1970s.

Grandad,

Ha ha he's a fuckin deluded wanker, He calls me a scab for being on strike I might pop down to where he lives one day and tell him the difference between someone who works and someone who doesn't.

I've never seen him at the Taxi Demos I've been to, he wasn't at Watford, he wasn't at the Houses of Parliament either when the deregulation bill came out.

He's busy sucking Liam Griffins man stick.

I'm sure there would be plenty of young lads that'd would enjoy the opportunity to become miners, we could burn coal Day in and Day out in the UK and it's environmental C02 impact on the world would be about the same as that of flee farting on a fechin Chinese Coal bink.

Yeah.....wait till theyve been down a pit on a 4ft coalface, they wont be so keen them

if it gets dug out now it will be opencast, hands up who wants one next door?

If it brought jobs and money into the area I'm sure many of us would...Except maybe for the retired affluent Nimby types who think just because they've cut it in life that WE the rest of us have no right to try and do likewise in these impoverished times.

The Modern open cast mines are not all that obvious, hidden behind landscaped bankings they are less obtrusive then many industrial sites are, and once they are no longer required they will be landscaped and returned to nature for wildlife to colonise.

Its not just the sites, its the noise, dust and 200 artics a day that some find irkesome

Grandad,

There's a coal fired power station in China that running at Zero emissions, it recycles everything and uses it for power.

Wouldn't bother me one bit, it's the tree huggers who get sand in their fannies when you mention coal and opencast.

yeah but you probably still get free coal

christ it was a problem where to store it all in summer

I wouldnt mind comments about the mining industry if they were from someone who had ever WORKED down a 600ft hole in the ground, not some mamby pamby print setter whose only risky job was spilling hot tea on themselves - miners never had hot tea at breaks, it was water and a sarnie...and some chewwing baccy and snuff till tea time
