Landroger - I think you are talking about the phone-in on radio 5 live earlier today, he wasnt speaking for BASSA offically, or BA or CC for that matter, it was just a phone in. Others gave a different version of events to his, there was balance.

Indeed he used a false name so could well have been a plumber from Greenwich council for all we know..!
Although it was a phone in, Richard featured throughout the programme. To suggest that he might be a plumber is very unflattering for CC members. He was very well versed in Bassa propaganda for a plumber.

It's a pity that there was little live input from more moderate CC members & particularly any member of the PCCC. Emails being read out by the programme host don't have the same impact as a live interview.

Although I mainly disagree with what Richard had to say, he came across as a very persuasive individual. He reminded me very much of the Unite CC spokesman who's name escapes me. Steve Turner, remembered Sat am!
