I was correcting your misinformation on Eddie Dempsey. Are you going to honestly claim you weren't attacking Eddie Dempsey, trying to call him out for living in housing he's legally entitled to?
I never denied there isn't a union leader who makes over 6 figures.
Which union leader makes over 6 figures salary and lives in council housing? Even so, why do you care so much?
Sorry. I get a bit passionate defending someone's right to a fair wage and a home.
Not sure if you're British too (OP and I are) but attacking union bosses is a thinly veiled attack on the Labour party, so in a way, it's a comment intended to incite.
You said it was just one union leader that makes 6 figures. I gave you evidence there are 23.
And call me mad, but someone who owns £100k+ should not be living in council houses intended for people of limited means. It's disgusting and parasitic.
Your original claim: " In the UK leaders of the big unions get six figure salaries, but still live in council (public) housing. KERCHING. "
Again, I ask you to give us the name of a single big union boss who earns £100k+ base salary (you can't pay rent with your employer pension contributions) AND who currently lives in a council property.
I'll even be charitable and accept deputy leaders.
Bob Crow was the canonical example. Obviously he's dead of a heart attack, but he showed now signs of moving out before he died.
We'll see what Eddie does after the next time he votes himself a payrise.
You still seem to think that it's OK for someone on ~£70k per year salary to live in housing intended for the most vulnerable, though, which is a strange for position for someone of the left.
I assume you’re referring to the RMT /deputy/ leader. And just one person, not plural
And it’s not a six figure salary. Just over six if you consider total comp
