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)

Barnet UNISON - leading the way and needing your help

http://www.barnetunison.me.uk/?q=node/1549

The final speaker at this morning's (inquorate) meeting of the Regional Council was John Burgess, Branch Secretary of Barnet UNISON.
‎
Barnet are in the front line of resisting privatisation - and are demonstrating how such resistance can sustain trade union membership, density and organisation even as services are outsourced.

‎UNISON members in Barnet who are fighting to remain Council employees are taking a further two days of strike action on Monday 1 and Tuesday 2 June.

UNISON members elsewhere in London are particularly encouraged to support a march at noon on Tuesday 2 June from the North London Business Park to a rally ‎at St John's Church Hall in Friern Barnet Lane, N20.

Book some leave and bring a banner!
