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)

Students support strikers!

Good news via the LRC that students at Goldsmiths have occupied in support of today's UCU strike action (http://l-r-c.org.uk/news/story/solidarity-with-ucu-strike/).



UCU are taking action in defence of jobs and pensions with today's English action following action in Wales, Scotland and Ireland - and leading to UK wide action on Thursday.



I have no doubt that trade unionists are most likely to find the confidence to support - and take - industrial action when this is organised nationally on a scale to match the scale of the attacks against us.
