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)

Apologies for delay!

Outrage amongst readers of this blog (Sid and Doris Blogger) has led to me receiving literally one enquiry about where my NEC report is...

I'm afraid I am well behind with my reports this week. A well attended Branch meeting Tuesday kept me from most of the Development and Organisation Committee, at which I arrived just in time to be in a minority in a discussion on whether to appeal some recent Certification Officer rulings.

Wednesday's NEC lasted the full day (because we are already pining for this year's President and didn't want the meeting to end...) and I would have got on with my reports from those meetings today had it not been for the (sadly inquorate) meeting of the Regional Council, from which I hurried off to Lambeth Council's Joint Strategy Forum.

So rather than update the blog right now I think I'll get some rest. In the mean time, if you are a local government UNISON member remember to post your ballot paper - having voted "YES" of course!

Have you not considered buying a TARDIS in order to seek to manage time travel and to see if you can really be in two places at once, Jon?!
