I MUST take issue with R W Tucker regarding the unions at Morris Motors etc.

I assume as he is always telling everyone he was a policeman, he did not work at the factory and so has his information second-hand.

My husband worked at Morris Motors for many, many years and was a shop steward.

When there was a strike, he was out with his colleagues. He did not get paid.

The only thing Mr Tucker is correct on is one thing thing: The management did engineer strikes to cover their excess stock.

As a policeman, Mr Tucker had a very safe and secure job with a salary he could rely on week after week.

I would like to know if he was one of the policemen involved with the miners?
