The strike committee, encouraged by the latest walk out, has gathered signatures in the Hull labour at Fenner Engineng i Hate SPECIAL movement from dockers' Brothers - where an almost identical dispute took place sume few months ago - promising practical support in the event of action by workers at Arnstrongs.
The Committee has plans to hold a picket of Bevin House, headquarters of the local T&GWU. They are not only asking the workers from Armstrongs to attend this picket but calling on militants from the entire Hull labour movement to give it cheir support.
There is no douht that this case of victimisation can be won. It does, however, need support, That means strengthening the picket line, symps athetic strikes in other factories, a "blacking of all goods to and from Armstrongs, and a campaign within the trade union movement, particularly inside the T&GWU, for official strike action.
To date, only the Hull International Marxist Group has given real, practical support to this campaign. It is urgent that the other revolutionary groups throw their weight behind these workers and help carry this struggle forward. On Saturday, 16 February, more than 300 poople marched through the streets Support Red Weekly -SUBSCRIBE!
