Trade Union Leaders' Names


Trades union leaders names: now any trade union leader worth his salt has to have a first name like Jimmy or Bob to have any shop-flood cred. Tarquin is definitely out, as is Ptolemy.

Surname can't be double-barrelled either, so Fortescue-Brown loses any impact, unless it's Bob Coal-Miner.


Foreign names too are a no-no. Pierre Lascale or Feodor Milosovic just doesn't cut the mustard with the working man.

Any suggestions?

There are 7.6 billion of us and climbing. Now hair and nails decompose only very slowly. Why aren't we knee deep in hair and nail clippings? Just a thought.
