“Mr Batty, who does not have a car and works as an administrator, told the BBC he had no option but to take leave because there were “no trains west of Southampton.””
Cry me a river, Mr Batty. Walk you prick.
I stand with all the current strikes. Enough is enough. A little inconvenience to help others earn what they deserve. What a selfish prick you are Mr Batty.
Who gives a fuck? They’ve tried asking nicely to not be screwed over. It didn’t work. Now they’re talking money, the only language this government understands and suddenly they’re the enemy of the people across the front pages. Support them. DISGRACEFUL for the BBC to publish this shite.
Who gives a shit what this gimp thinks?
Articles like this are a reminder why I don’t pay for the BBC.
Fucking “Balloon Market” returns advisor. Talk about dragging your company down.
Sorry, rail workers – you all have to go back to work because Chris Batty and his own shitty employer are more important than you and yours.
Ah, BBC continuing to sell the “It’s the evil workers!” line I see. How about a new headline:
> Dorset commuter forced to take leave as government pighheadedness bites
> travels from Christchurch in Dorset to Totton in Hampshire
“Consequences of my own actions” comes to mind, living so far away. How did he cope during lockdowns?
Every time I see things like this what ai really hear is Rail workers are essential for functioning of a country so here is radical idea let’s pay people who are essential proper wage.
You don’t here about Chris Batty being affected by bank manager not turning up so maybe just maybe we somehow pay more for jobs that are of lesser importance to society for some bizarre reason
The guy travels 60 miles every day to work as an administrator, earns so little he apparently can’t afford his own car, and his employer is such a bastard they won’t let him work from home when the railways are on strike – and he’s STILL not on the side of the workers?
Let him suffer. Fucking Tory shill.
The problem is with his dickhead boss enforcing unrealistic working conditions by not letting him do his admin job from home, which is exactly the same as what strikers are fighting for not to happen . What a Moron.
>”You’ve got to think ultimately of the people who are paying your wages, which is us, the commuters,” he added.
You’d think he’d have given them better pay, really, seeing as he pays their wages.
The BBC is really stepping up its anti-union propaganda if every person who has to change plans is getting their own article.
I’m having to travel a day earlier for my Christmas plans to avoid the Christmas Eve strike. Should I call the news desk?
