PAUL Hobbs, shop steward for the ten sacked workers at Stanfords Map Shop, told SO:
'Management have agreed to a meeting at ACAS on Monday the 24th. Before they've said there was nothing further to discuss. So clearly our picket, which has the official support of ACTSS, is having an effect on their trade and it's embarrassing them.
'They may try and offer to pay us off to make us go away but we'll be restating our case for full reinstatement and union recognition."
Previously, management have only offered reengagement under different terms for all the sacked workers except Paul.
•The London booksellers branch of ACTSS which was set up a couple of months ago has been growing. We've had a couple of new bookshops join as well as recruiting staft at the shops where there are already members."
