Chapter 461: Angry Rebuke of the Union
Starting with Angelina, the procession gradually stopped, and the shouting also stopped one after another, and everyone looked at the union leaders who stopped at the intersection, with different eyes, and what they couldn't see was also relayed by their companions in front.
Angelina pretended not to know and asked, "Who are you?" โ
Hani stepped forward and said loudly: "I am Hani, the chairman of the trade union, I reiterate once again that no one is allowed to demonstrate without the union coming forward to organize, your march is illegal, I order you to return to the factory immediately!" โ
Sure enough, Papin was not wrong, some of the workers showed hesitation, although they did not get any help from the union, and although the vast majority of people had never met Hani, but in any case, the union has always been an organization representing the workers, and the workers are naturally members of the union, since the first workers' movement, and for decades, many people have become accustomed to the existence of this union, even if it is of no use to themselves, and always feel that the union can control themselves.
Angelina immediately said coldly: "The secret police arrested my husband Bush and killed Catherine, a female worker who was undergoing surgery, how can this account be calculated?" โ
"Ahem~~" Hani coughed twice, squeezed out a trace of sympathy: "We have also heard that Dr. Bush was arrested, and we will try our best to rescue Dr. Bush through the strength of the union, but the union has the obligation to cooperate with the government in conducting an investigation, we believe that the government will never wronged a good person, if Dr. Bush is not a Russian spy, I think the government will soon do not acquit him!" โ
Jones took a step forward and said, "As for the death of Catherine, the female worker, we need to investigate first. If the fault lies with the secret police, the union will represent the family of the deceased to the secret police. It will take time to fight for the corresponding compensation. Please be patient and go back now! โ
"Patient?" Angelina was furious and said: "Everyone knows what kind of virtue the secret police is, rely on you, I'm afraid Bush would have been executed a long time ago, and the facts of Catherine's death are clear, she was suddenly shot and killed by the secret police while undergoing surgery, there is no need to investigate at all, she is completely innocent, and the family of the deceased does not need compensation." There is only one demand, one life for one life, you quickly get out of the way, the trade union cannot represent us, our rights must be fought for by ourselves! โ
"I am the husband of the deceased, Catherine cannot die in vain! Murder must pay for life! Led by Carter, everyone walked out carrying the coffin, their faces full of grief and indignation.
Hani swept his eyes coldly, and his face sank: "I am the chairman of the union." All workers in Britain are under the jurisdiction of the trade unions, and we have the right to represent the workers in a bargaining with the government, Mrs. Bush, and I respect Dr. Bush so that I don't want to embarrass you. But I want you to recognize who you are, you are not the British trade union leadership, you have no right to organise the march! โ
"Bullshit!" Bilton exclaimed, "What a union." What a union president! We workers drink dirty water and squeeze a dozen people's rooms. Working more than twelve hours a day, he earns only two or three pence. Where are you? Have you ever taken a stand out for us?
We are in the factory, we are beaten and scolded, we are kicked out of the factory when we are injured at work, we need to pay for treatment at our own expense, if we can't cure it, we can only die in pain in the injury and illness, at this time, where are you? If it weren't for Dr. Bush's kindness in helping the workers, who would have helped us?
Facts have proved that the trade union has never represented the workers, it only represents a group of opportunists, in the name of the trade union, in collusion with the government wolf bรจi, to satisfy personal selfish desires, everyone sees, this is the union leader, in a suit and leather shoes, with shiny hair and red face, a gentleman's style, are they workers?
No! They are not, they have never been in the factory for a day, they are the lackeys of the capitalists, they are the accomplices of the capitalists, since they are not workers, what qualifications do they have to represent us workers? Brothers, do you say? โ
"That's right! Right! We don't need to be represented by the union! We're going to make our voices heard! At the instigation of the party members who mingled with the ranks, the workers roared one after another, and only a trace of awe was unconsciously thrown away.
Indeed, the difference between the image of the trade union leadership and the workers is too great, no matter how you look at it, they are not part of the workers, and if they have no sense of identity, how can they accept the other party to represent themselves?
The union leadership, led by Haney and Jones, all looked slightly pale, feeling so small and out of place in the face of hundreds of thousands of arms-waving workers.
Today's trade unions, after the defeat of the three workers' movements, although nominally still in the hands of the left, have in fact become accomplices of the authorities, and the salaries of the union leaders are basically from donations from capitalists, and the amount is high, equivalent to the level of senior executives in large companies!
How can it be possible to do things for the workers if they eat and drink from others?
Papin raised his arms and exclaimed: "Brothers, history has long proved that the trade union is not our workers' organization, and the trade union leaders have betrayed the interests of our workers three times in a row for personal gain, so from today onwards, we no longer need trade unions, we workers have our own organizations, she is the Communist Party of England, the general secretary of the party is Dr. Bush, and the rest of the members are all from the workers, this is the proletarian party that truly represents the workers, and the party will lead us in the struggle against the capitalists and fight for the workers their rightful place, in this world, Only we workers can save ourselves! โ
Jones changed color and said: "Shut up, now my country's war against Russia is in a critical period, a little chaos in the rear will affect the front of the war, we are all British, we must take into account the overall situation, we must put national interests first, and we have the obligation to cooperate with the government in the war against Russia, I warn you for the last time, go back to the factory immediately, otherwise the government will try you for treason!" โ
"Hahahaha~~" Bill laughed and said: "In the war against Russia, the dead soldiers are from the lower classes, they die fighting for the country, and they can only get a meager pension, while the capitalists can obtain the market through the war, divide the power of forces, and earn a lot of money.
We dedicate ourselves to the country, does the country do it for us? How did we become treason when we fought for our own rights? Yes, we are British, we identify with our nationality, we are naturally patriotic, but we do not identify with this evil government, he does not represent us, he only represents the interests of the aristocracy and capitalists!
Jones, you are just a lackey of the capitalists, wagging your tail and begging for mercy from the capitalists to reward you with some bones, what right do you have to accuse us of treason? Get out of here now, or don't blame us for taking your blood sacrifice flag, brethren, come, sing with me now" (To be continued......
