Quote:
Those who crossed the picket line included Terry Wogan, his fellow Radio 2 presenter Sarah Kennedy, and the Radio 1 DJs Chris Moyles and Jo Whiley. Wogan wished the picketers 'good luck' as he turned up to present his breakfast show, but said that as a contractor he did not feel able to join them.
But no the luscious Natasha didn't betray the working class:
Quote:
The BBC 1 Breakfast hosts Natasha Kaplinsky and Dermot Murnaghan both supported the strike by staying away. The programme was replaced with a hastily put together simultaneous broadcast with BBC News 24.

Ah, misread it as "Most prominent BBC scab" 
I always knew that Declan Curry was an unpleasant little slug, anyway.

Yeah don't worry we've got lots more on the way, of both celebrity scabs and celebrity working class heroes.
In what is I'm pretty sure the world's only socialist/anarchist celebrity newswire/archive:

Does it have to have the word heroes in it? I know it's tongue in cheek but still.

it's obviously ironic...

Maybe my memories not so good, but i thought Chris Moyles crossed the picketline that day. Should be on here somewhere.

Does this means I can choke Chris Moyles with his own faeces and claim it's revolutionary justice (rather than just a cry from the heart)?

Can Emmanuel Adebayor be a working class hero for organising the Togolese national team in an attempt to get their (£2,000) bonuses for reaching the World Cup?

I couldn't care if he promoted a Wehrmacht 1939-1945 reunion tour across Europe he's still a fucking genuis and has made Man utd the most exciting team to watch in English football if not all of Europe.

Ah come on Belfast, your class needs you more than Man Utd, who probably have more fans in one provincial Belfast house than the entire of Organise's membership history.
I gotta grudgingly accept that it's taken the guy going senile and refusing to talk to press but his team's finally started to play attractive football. Wonder where they'd be without moneybags Cristiano though, and Arsenal still play prettier. I could fuck a Fabregas pass.

yes because his early-mid 90s United side, and the 99 treble-winning side played such boring one-dimensional football 
whereas 90s Arsenal..... 1-0 springs to mind

Oh right yeah, you had Brian McClair, the Irish answer to Pele.
(Yeah, I know, that cuts deep innit .)
Face it, you'd have already lost the title if it weren't for Ronaldo's George Best act.

And yeah, 90s Arsenal were bare boring. Never liked George Graham much to be honest, too defensive. That back four were pretty fuckin great though.

careful Alan you're very close to outting yourself as a johnny come lately prawn sandwhich eater.
Or have Giggs, Hughes, Lee Sharpe, Andrei Kanchelkis, Cantona, Yorke and Cole slipped your memory.
Man Utd have always play fast exciting football and always given free reign to talented wide men and what about Cantona, he was everywhere, could pass, shoot dribble and head, he would make Henry look like Heskey!
And Ronaldo has been on fire this season but Chelsea are much more a one man team, if they lost Drogba they'd be nowhere and lets not even talk about what they were like without their racist bootboy at the back!

and Chelsea wouldn't be fuck all if it weren't for Drogba's 30 goals so far.
Every team has their star players, but United are playing as a TEAM, playing sweet football, goals (lots of them) coming from all over the park, not just one player.
United are so fuckin sweet right now.
Jesus Chelsea are shit.

The difference between Arsenal's fast flowing, counter-attacking football and Man Utd's fast flowing counter-attacking football is that United's has an end product.

Refused Arsenal aren't fast flowing, they are a patient build up team, it's pretty up to a point but disappoints in the end cos it has no substance, like one of those electro clash girls Alan loves so much!

I think Wenger tries to play both systems at the same time and it ends up looking like a kickabout in the park.
