The staff of the UK’s most rabidly right-wing newspaper, the Daily Express, are striking…

…despite screaming almost every day that “militant unions are bringing Britain to its knees”

You couldn’t make it up! 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

While quoting the news out of context is good for some LOLs, it's important to realize that staff at the paper have a strong history of union activity. The union's general secretary worked at the Express before she worked for the union. Even the paper's bosses don't all come from a right-wing tradition. So there's a lot more to the story than meets the eye.

@RedBaron I'm sorry it's still a satirist's dream!

@RedBaron It is true but the same writers who slag of 'Marxist Unions' then vote for strike action. 🤦‍♂️

@Burnley123 A job is a job. You do what you're being paid to do if you want to keep it.

Strange times . .
These are probably people who usually opine that "strikers should be summarily fired", right ? 😆

I've got 50 bucks says the next story they run is how unions are vital for the survival of the little people.
