I took this picture on Monday of a group of “rebels” outside my shop.

As was well documented in the media our local council went on strike in opposition to the change the retirement age, and the alteration in pensions plan for its workers!

They set up their picket line in front of the local offices and all was going as planned untill this lot appeared and ran off with thier placards, Much to the amusement of myself and a few others!

The kids ran around town and probably brought more attention to the cause than a line of old women standing outside the civic buildings with a cup of hot chocolate to keep them warm! They didn’t hurt anybody and in all honesty raised more smiles than they did frowns, So you can imagine my amusement when, whilst in work today, a local council worker came into our store and during a conversation about the strike started complaining that “their strike had been ransacked by some young hooligans”, and demanded to know “why the hell weren’t they in school anyway??”

WHY WEREN’T THEY IN SCHOOL???…BECAUSE YOU LOT WERE ALL ON STRIKE MORON!!
