Garbage article. It uses insinuation to suggest that the union is essentially an arm of the Hell's Angels. Clearly no journalistic integrity to be found with this 'news' organization.

Ah, so they're turning to slander. Preparing for strike busting are we?

Workers deserve a living wage and safe working conditions. ✊ 🏴🚩

This is an "opinion" writeup in a fringe publication. Why bother sharing such slanted views on our world?

Terrible article that flips back and forth between talking about the strike and talking about organized crime. It seems to be implying that union workers and organized criminals are one and the same.

Organized crime exists but it has nothing to do with a labour strike.

Holy fucking sealioning OP.

Pick any large enough sample of the population and there will be some criminals in it. You can't just use that fact to discredit any organization you don't like.

Garbage article and garbage "news" outlet.
