NUJ picket line at the Kingston print works (Trident Group), • was recently attacked by Last Friday night, a peacetul picket outside the Church Street, Kingston printing plant was halted by force by a 15-strong team of Several of the 25 pickets were violently hurled to the ground and three trade unionists and the husband of an NUJ journalist were bundled into a police van, and later charged with obstruction.
However the journalists have resolved not to be intimidated and are making renewed appeals for mass pickets-particularly on Tuesdays and Fridays until late evening.
Sympathetic SOGAT drivers sympathetic to the strike, upon telephoning their union leadership, have been continually instructed to cross the picket line.

Strike headquarters is at 162, London Road, Kingston to which messages of support should be sent.
