THE campaign against the Tebbit anti-union law is stepping up in Hull. On Thursday 6 May Hull Trades Union Council decided to endorse the Mobilising Committee call for action, with one amendment (that instead of nothing being done by the TUC, not enough was being done).
Hull TUC further decided to hold a major public meeting on the Bill on June 3 and to order 10,000 copies of the Mobilising Committee fact sheet, to build a maximum attendance.
Leafletting of shop stewards' meetings, factories and estates are all planned.
Regular emergency by Winnie Murphy ings of Hull TUC Executive with shop stewards and local full time officials will be held to plan the campaign.
Action has not been confined to Hull TUC. A local Mobilising Committee has been set up to raise the issue throughout the Hull labour movement. Already many local union branches and Labour Party wards are discussing the Tebbit legislation as a matter of urgency.

endorsed the call to action with Hull Central CLP ordering 500 copies of the fact sheet to distribute to Labour Party members and supporters.
In addition, Hull Unemployed Workers Union are circulating the national unemployed movement with fact sheets and details of the campaign.
Members of HUWU are also working closely with members of Hull TUC to ensure that the public meeting is a big success.
