Management at N Greening Ltd, Warrington, seem to have got the message from Norman Tebbit: they want to abolish the annual wage claim, end negotiated holidays, and reduce trade union facilities, removing the full time convenor's post.
In addition they want 89 jobs to go, with the closure of half the site and further job losses to come within six months.
All 400 workers at Greenings - members UI UNDU, ELITY, HUDY dIU INUDIY — have been on strike for five weeks to stop this full frontal attack on their union rights.
The strikers have been visiting other workplaces to get support. This week the visited the Ford plant at Halewood. Messages/donations:
