I read recently an article on the BBC about what is news and what is not. Fairly obvious conclusion was that the frequent news events are miserable because the people are bored. I think this is some reason for my low activity on the blog:) Like a lot going on: student riots in parliament, strike underground city of paralysis due to scoop the snow and another state or bankrupt companies. But since I have it every day, what is this news? If this were such a beautiful day (though the day was beautiful, it would be some news there already), no metro it is not broke, it would be an event!
In that article author says, inter alia, on strikes. I heard a couple of times the term 'Winter of Discontent', but I did not know that it refers to the winter of 1979, where as a result of strikes lost 29 million man-days. Since then, the media against governments like about this recall by comparing any 'industrial actions' to those 30 years. Although it really does not compare to it, because, in spite of a much larger current labor strikes are 50x lower than the then. But that occur so rarely, it is are a good 'news'.
I am accustomed to the subway strike. Step out of the peak (that is, for example, around 7 am) and go after (ie after 19tej) and after the trouble. And since every other station is closed, a man even faster return home. Trade unions continue to grieve over a voluntary reduction in employment ... I think that now that they have more regard for the preservation of face. See how many people around, loses his job because of the crisis, and well-paid workers underground, or airport complain of low rise ... So listening to the heads of trade unions (who probably nothing but szefowaniem not do) really becomes a capitalist. I would not mind a dissolution of trade unions;)
Slightly more complicated is the situation with the students. Overall, studies in England are paid, but largely by the state. From what I know, most Britons pay only about one thousand pounds per year, the rest is covered by the state. Graduate with debt, but because I feel more self-reliance is placed on the students and usually remain the same (working or student loans). Credits do not have to pay until they begin to close enough to earn salaries of the national average, which is pretty fast, but it means rather that the 30tką loan for an apartment / house will not take. [And, such an allusion to all the young Poles who have complained that after graduation they can not afford a loan for your dream home. Britons in the area 30tki take credit for anything, sometimes literally the garage]. Under the new law will have to pay up to 9,000 pounds per year of study, which practically doubled their student loan. I think that something like that would be imparted in Poland to restore the study of some meaning and status. But in England is much lower percentage of students than in Poland and rather few of them wasting taxpayers' money and the parents because it is more fun to get enough sleep and partying than working 9 + hours a day
(Gee, where did u me this radicalism today?)
Thus, some of them understand. There is some debate now whether the form of protests (demolition of public property) is correct. Personally I am inclined to believe that a small group of anarchists (perhaps not even students). Though maybe if mortgages are not so strict that the former may be real estate prices were closer to reality .. hard to say why complains about it and talk about the weather.
snow fell and much of England is crippled. It happened already last year, and it really two years ago and, although when winter lasted only a few days. From what I heard, in Poland we also gave the characters, so no one probably the story of trains canceled or closed roads will not be surprising. What is surprising is the helplessness of the British. I'm not sure if I can believe it, but one of the employees in my office has not arrived home on Tuesday. Living near London, 30-40 miles in a straight line and normally goes to the home about 40 minutes. But this time the whole south-east was paralyzed, so he got stuck at the station in London about 20tej. He managed to catch a train to the south near 23tej, which, however, stopped at a station in the middle of the road for the rest of the tracks were buried again. He spent the night at the station / the train, then returned the same composition at 10 am in London ... History seemed to be unlikely (as you can get stuck for the night 15 miles from home ???), until I found this article . Other a train in the same direction (London - Hastings) broke down, so that the passengers spent the night in the entrancing poorly heated warehouse. Buses arrived to take place until 5:30 am 0. One would think that the failure had to take place at some unknown wilderness of islands, the British science ... but no. From London to Hastings is about 100km south-east is a relatively urbanized region. A lot of people also stuck on the highways, which have become impassable for a year (universal) tires at a minimum precipitation. History of these is more what I'm still a little surprising. In the end, England This is not a tropical country with snow and regularly has to deal with.
Until then do not complain, always an attraction and less traffic in the city. Also, I like snow, and I do not have television and I have been following a policy specifically to even missed my idols ...
