Stephen Morgan Shadow Rail minister addresses RMT Station Grades conference in Portsmouth @RMTunion @RMTedinburgh asked directly about joining pickets in the future. No direct answer given, he’s better being in background than on front line!

The engine powered Hawker Hunter jets, which had been used on the day of the coup to bomb Santiago.

Bob Crow- LEGEND! Let’s never forget Bob had to fight against unsavoury elements within our movement to get elected GS. Having previously seeing off a nasty challenge from the right wing to try unseat him as AGS. We are so fortunate he smashed it! @RMTunion@RMT_Scotland
