That light at the end of the Tube tunnel

... is Bob Crowe, incandescent with rage. One thousand employees of London Underground are to be laid off. Ooh! His boys, those are. Bob's ASLEF boys.

If any of the old class warlords has been waiting in the wings for someone to light the blue touch paper, it's Bob Crowe. Phone cradled in his collarbone as he chats to the Socialist Workers Party's Agit team, he'll be ordering his placards and counting his braziers even as we speak. Gordon.
