Top Ten Celebrity Scabs!

Right the strike at the beeb is revealing a fair few scabbing wankers, including:
Chris Moyles
Terry Wogan
Jo Whiley
And of course Nicholas Witchall scabbed in the 89 (88?) strike...
I remember Ed going on about how Elizabeth Hurley scabbed on a hollywood strike, any other famous blacklegs anyone know of? Who's the best/worst?

Really? I fucking hate that Kermode kock, all his stupid bullshit before films on filmfour, trying to be pretentious but actually just being a nob - is he really a scab? I would love that, then I could politicise my hatred of him. And his stupid hair.

well he's reporting live from Cannes Film Fest. right now so you've got a better reason to hate him.
EDIT - balls it looks as though it was a repeat of Friday's show, sorry, your hatred of Kermode will have to remain personal.

Actually doing a google I came across this anti-union article, which actually has some pretty cool examples of workers' direct action:

(remove space to make link work)
I wouldn't've thought actors would be so militant!
Oh dear I also found Tiger Woods, celebrity scab, from Maxim!

Hmmm although he did turn down a Nike ad due to the strike. Hmmm... See below, also Shaq and Michael Johnson - scabs!

3. He’s a lousy scab.Screen Actors Guild member Tiger said he supported SAG’s strike…till Buick paid him to film a commercial. Union rep Rocco said, “Let’s see how good he is with two broken ankles.”
Thats an awesome quote from Maxim

Also apparently the oh-so-working class Oasis are scabs - according to Sorry. they pre-recorded a live gig that was due to go out yesterday evening, but couldn't because technical staff were striking.
And "Hey Leilla" or whatever is utter shite.

he was the only presenter on the bbc breakfast program to turn up, all the other presenters had said before monday that they would support the strike. in conclusion, what a prick.

I'm please to say that since Chris Moyles scabbed, he is reduced to drinking on his own in pubs:

No he wasn't. Everyone knows your hero is Wallace from Wallace and Gromit.

No, Wallace is not my actual hero, just who I model my dress sense on.
