From the outset, our skepticism of Sharon Graham was palpable. Despite her middle-of-the-road approach during the campaign, she skillfully masked it with fiery left-wing rhetoric, appealing to the masses with promises of change. However, as time passes, the facade is beginning to crack, unveiling her true nature as yet another power-hungry bureaucrat, more concerned with consolidating her own influence than enacting meaningful change.

It's vital, especially for trade unionists, to grasp that the issue isn't solely the amount of wages; rather, it's the very structure of the wage system that perpetuates worker suppression.
Engaging in continual battles for incremental wage hikes may provide temporary financial relief, but it fails to address the underlying problem.
Genuine emancipation from the shackles of oppression demands a concerted effort to dismantle the entire system and pave the path towards a society rooted in a planned economy, where workers are empowered and resources are allocated for the collective benefit of all.

Our comrade Rick, who once toiled as a docker himself, is able to speak from firsthand experience about the relentless labor undertaken by these seafarers, all for a wage that barely sustains them, while the CEO luxuriates with a half-million quid in earnings.
