Tyne said: “How do people not see the point he’s making? Whether it’s rail or any sector he’s fighting for working class people. People keep throwing this 60k figure out, it’s also about all the staff on less than 20k a year whilst these private companies pay their bosses 6 figure.” Landi said: “As usual GMB only asking the hard questions of the union and giving the government an easy time.”
“As usual GMB only asking the hard questions of the union and giving the government an easy time,” Christopher laughed.

Knight wrote: “Round 2: Madeley 0 – Lynch 2.” Binder said: “Wish you would go after the government as vehemently who are subsidising railways throughout this dispute when they could use this money to settle the dispute and stop disruption any time they want.”
DD said: “When are you going to get rid of @richardm56 He cannot be taken seriously as a presenter or interviewer. He is no way impartial and does not hold with public opinion. Absolutely dismal!!”
