Monday 12 September 2011


Joint event with Unite the Union and the United Campaign
5.30pm, Shaftesbury Avenue, London 

It is high time that workers and their unions should openly and proudly
publish their views, their aims and their tendencies and meet the capitalist
agenda with a manifesto of their own. Fairness, equality and solidarity
should once again come centre stage, with trade unions and collective
bargaining playing a leading role.

TUC Congress may be smaller in size and shorter in length this year but the
issues to be addressed could not be bigger. Show your support for our
Manifesto for Trade Unionists and swell the ranks of TUC delegates by
joining us at this open event.

Back: resisting 'union-busting' and 'strike-breaking' in the BA dispute

September 2011 


The story of this publication relates to a dispute that had huge
implications for UNITE and BASSA members whose lives were turned upside down
by the demands of the employer. But the nature of the dispute and the
conduct of BA also have massive implications for British trade unionism
generally.

And coming Soon...... Days of Action: the legality of protest strikes
against government cuts by Keith Ewing and John Hendy QC

The authors consider whether a Day of Action called by the TUC and trade
unions, taking place on a weekday and intended to protest at the
government's cuts and austerity measures, could be lawful in the UK in the
light of recent jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights. They
conclude that such a call and participation in the action should both be
protected by Article 11 of the European Convention on Human Rights and
Fundamental Freedoms. They go on to consider how that conclusion would
impact on domestic law. Available soon from  <http://www.ier.org.uk>
