Oh don't worry, i'm sure there'll be 'audio problems' during the transmission, giving them an opportunity to replace him with deepfaked footage of Greg Wallace saying slurs. e:65 is 4 short of being nice

Has tended to be ahead of the others (quite dramatically in case of Johnson). Yeah being fair when I posted that tweet in here it was all they had sent me and it looked like they just screamed FAKE at me and hosed off

ASLEF reallty need to pull their finger out and join their 'sister' union with co-ordinated action, it is a lot harder for TOCs to find scab drivers than other grades. I say 'sister' because when I was in the RMT striking against DOO ASLEF weren't interested despite their members largely being against it. If ASLEF and TSSA return yes ballots (balloting in progress but the RMT always seem to do the heavy lifting) and coordinate with the RMT the strikes will be really fun then as that includes the grades of people coordinating strike contingency plans.

It looks simple, but it's a real skill. You also need to not have brainworms, which is even harder.

It also takes a certain degree of... I don't know what to call it, arrogance is what you call it most of the time, but basically there is an impulse when having a conversation with someone, to give and take in the conversation, to assume they are acting in good faith and to follow where they lead to a degree. People who simply do not demonstrate that at all in conversation are usually horrible to talk to and come off as extremely arrogant, but I think that impulse is something that media types tend to exploit. So you have to be able to shut it off without seeming like a ranting nutter. And that's an even harder skill to develop if you're not a frothing arsehole because it runs entirely contrary to how you have to interact with people the rest of the time. So it's generally the preserve of right wing psychos or politico/marketing freaks who sound like robots.

He’s good at debating: this is hard because you need to have a lockdown on (a) all the relevant and potentially relevant facts; (b) the context and framing of those facts; and (c) your own temper when someone lies or makes a seriously disingenuous point. Doing it right makes it look commonsensical and easy but it isn’t.

In a saner world that might make the government pull their finger out and do something to prevent it but in hell world I assume it's just going to mean they legislate it out of existence or step up booting people off of support.

I wonder if he'll never be invited back after this week, or if every channel will want him on constantly for the ~engagement~. I guess it depends if the clicks are worth letting the country be a little bit radicalised.

They’ll call up ex-bosses or other people Mick Lynch has upset by being a tough negotiator and put together a takedown smear accusing him of being an unrepentant bully. Then all the journos will pile on accusing him of being disrespectful and of bullying them when he does a “that’s ridiculous” comeback in an interview. “Why can’t you just answer the question Mr Lynch? Why do you feel the need to denigrate me for doing my job?”
