Now -read the book!

Here is a link to my memoirs which, if you are a glutton for punishment, you can purchase online at https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/an-obscure-footnote-in-trade-union-history.
Men fight and lose the battle, and the thing that they fought for comes about in spite of their defeat, and when it comes turns out not to be what they meant, and other men have to fight for what they meant under another name. (William Morris - A Dream of John Ball)

Solidarity with the tube workers

Good luck and solidarity to Underground workers in the RMT striking today – and until Thursday. Workers do not take strike action lightly and if the tube workers feel they need to protect themselves then they deserve the full support of all trade unionists (and all those who call themselves socialists…)(who shouldn’t be having a go at the Union!)

A 72 hour strike seems to be a good way to start a serious dispute. Who do I know who ought to be about to embark upon a serious dispute?
