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)

What were they thinking?

A hat tip to Tony Greenstein for picking up on a report commissioned by a trade union which recommends privatisation.

The report includes recommendations that, "The Government should recognise that best practice is for contractors to have a presence in job centres," and that "The Government should robustly monitor the sub-contracting market to ensure that competition and innovation are maximised."

No wonder I cannot find a link to the report from the home page of the union concerned.
