FUND FIGHTING FOR London payable Organıser 10 che THE sell-out of the November 1 wage review at BL revealed more clearly than ever before the massive gulf which exists between the shop floor and national trade union officials.
Meanwhile the all-out management offensive against the work-force is going on with even greater intensity: the company's drive for speed-up and demanning now directly threatens basic shop floor organisation.
The tasks facing militants In BL centre on these chronic problems of leadership at all levels of the unions. The Leyland Action Committee, which played an important role in the preparation of and during the wages strike, has called a conference to discuss the new situation in BL and the practical steps necessary to defend workers' interests.
As well as reports from factories in BL Cars there will be a first-hand report on the situation in Leyland Vehicles from a delegation of LAC supporters in those plants.
An important part of the agenda will be organising resistance to the company's new procedure document.
AIl BL workers who support the general aims and objectives of the LAC are urged to attend.
The Conference will be held at Digbeth Civic Hall, Birmingham, on Saturday January 23 1982 from 10.30 to 5.00 pm. Conference fee will be £1.
