Daily Mail takes a swipe at Mick Lynch's pay and benefits

THE Daily Mail, whose reporters endure zero union recognition, took a swipe at Mick Lynch's pay and benefits today.
The legendary union leader, who led the largest wave of industrial action on the railways since the 1980s, announced on Thursday that he will retire from his position as general secretary at RMT.
He spent three years in the role, gaining mass support in charismatically outwitting bigoted press who sought to label him a “rail baron” for fighting for better conditions for working people.
