Demonisation of ESB union leader Ogle does him an injustice

It’s the sort of thing you have to whisper — the kind of remark one should avoid in polite company. I’ve found in the past that it’s one of those things you should only say if you’re prepared to put up with dog’s abuse, especially in the letter columns of decent respectable newspapers like this one.

But you’ve been warned, so here goes. Brendan Ogle is a decent man. There, I’ve said it. And now that it’s out in the open, I might as well go further. He does a right good job of representing his own people, and if every representative of people — both public and private — was as committed and honest as he is, we’d all be better off.
