This pamphlet publishes – for the first time – an analysis of the British trade unions by founding Party Chairman Reg Birch. Available now, price £3 including p&p, from Bellman Books, 78 Seymour Avenue, London N17 9EB. Please make cheques payable to "WORKERS". Alternatively pay online
In Britain, the trade unions were created, uniquely, as "weapons of a working class". They were an "organic coming together of a class out of the conflict of class relationship" – a necessary tool for survival, built for defence not attack, against the employer in an economic system based on class exploitation.
This is the starting point for this speech , given by Reg Birch in 1982, which goes on to outline the history of our trade unions – tracing them back to at least the 14th century – and to analyse their development, peculiar to Britain.
The CPBM-L is re-issuing the text of this important speech by its founding Chairman, not as an academic exercise or a historic curiosity, but because Reg Birch's analysis raised important questions for us today.
Read it, consider it, and discuss it with your fellow workers.
