He didn't blame anyone. He supplied a possible reason to an Australian chum.You were privy enough to blame non-overtime working staff in your post
Maybe blame the companies that charge you a fortune whilst cutting costs at every possible turn?
Not everything posted in Off Topic has to be a right wing nut job attack on Trade Unions.
If 3 trains in succession are cancelled that is the obvious reason, the remedy is for the loony sub thread that only the bravecdare enter.
If it helps, I do not know if Betty is right or left wing but I can confirm she is a nut job.
As they are of teenage years I think you are several years late for this thread.I've got three teenage lads.

That’s the Yonners from Lancashire. ’the frrst one I saw for yurs and yurs were one that went rouynd and rouynd and undergrouynd, at the Croyn and Anchyr pub’.A lot of Brits say Yurs instead of years, kills me !
Gawby bastards.
Chelsea fans when they sang ‘Champions of Yurrope, you’ll never sing that’.
‘Tuth’ is another one for tooth
And ‘rmm’ for room.

People on tele who pronounce words stupidly.
For example, ‘corter’ for quarter or ‘Parkitstarn’ for Pakistan.
But that's how Pakistan is pronounced, as I'm regularly informed by my niece's husband who was born there!
That, then is correct but when you have white, British, specifically newsreaders saying it, things like that does irritate me. It happened at the start of the Ukraine/Russia war with Keev instead of Kiev because the locals call it that. Here’s a simple daft but example, do think a French journalist who was commenting on the recent GB cycling tour, when passing though parts of Greater Manchester and Lancashire, would you think they change their sophisticated French accent to someone from Wigan? “This is Cyrille Guimard reporting from Bessie O’ th’ Barn”;)But that's how Pakistan is pronounced, as I'm regularly informed by my niece's husband who was born there!

My niece's husband also learnt English when he was studying at Aberdeen University so has an Aberdonian accent, so I always think of him as Scottish.
Isn't multiculturalism brilliant!
Oh so you're blaming the company then ! Perhaps the company have made a perfectly reasonable pay offer to to the workers who couldn't give 2 shits about the customer. Its people like you that have fucked the country up.I’m not blaming the staff, that’s what they announced at the fucking station.
I have no issue with anyone withdrawing their labour. I didn’t blame them , my complaint was about the dickheads refusing to move along the train.

So why not also pronounce other countries and cities as the locals pronounce them?But that's how Pakistan is pronounced, as I'm regularly informed by my niece's husband who was born there!

It’s more like ‘Poks-ton’, rather than the poncey shite our newsreaders come out with; ‘I’m going to Milaaarn to have a laaartte and then I’m off to Paaarkistaaarn for a baaarth’.But that's how Pakistan is pronounced, as I'm regularly informed by my niece's husband who was born there!
