What do members think of the Police “march” in Central London which sounds a bit like action along industrial lines.
Yes, it is industrial action of sorts and something they have done previously to exert pressure upon the government. Over 20,000 held a protest march in 2008.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7203839.stm Whether they actually ever go on strike again as they did in 1919, well I doubt it. Back then the government showed just how ruthless it could be in sacking striking police and I am in no doubt they would again. What the Party wrote in 1919 about the police strikes.http://socialismoryourmoneyback.blogspot.com/2008/01/last-time-police-went-on-strike.html Also worth a read Socialist Standard article from 1971http://socialismoryourmoneyback.blogspot.com/2010/01/all-coppers-are-workers.html#comment-form
