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)

Nice one Bob!


Full marks to the RMT Union for organising a national Conference for union activists on 28 October. RMT's annual general meeting instructed the union to organise a national shop stewards' conference, open to all trade unionists, with one of its focuses being to build support for a Trade Union Freedom Bill.

The depth and breadth of grass-roots organisation of workplace reps has always been a crucial barometer of the general health of the trade-union movement. Speakers include Bob Crow and representatives from T&G, CWU, PCS, NUJ, NUM, CYWU, FBU and BFAWU.

DATE/TIME: Saturday October 28, 11.30am to 3.30pm
PLACE: Camden Centre, Bidborough Street, London WC1H 9JE

To register, email j.croy@rmt.org.uk, or write to RMT, Unity House, 39 Chalton Street, London NW1 1JD
