“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.” Abraham Lincoln
I have a soft spot for Bob Crow, he’s a very dedicated trade unionist and speaks his mind.
So The Sun’s statement is all the more enjoyable:
“An article on 15 September reported RMT General Secretary Bob Crow had a union-subsidised home and luxury car.
In fact, Mr Crow’s home has never been subsidised by the union and he does not own a car, union or otherwise, and champions public transport.
We are happy to set the record straight and apologise to Mr Crow. “

I wonder where the apology was placed in the paper/ Can’t imagine that it was given quite the same prominence as the original article….
