Get your Socialist Press delivered each week by pos JOIN As part of the build-up for the February 9 anti-cuts demonstration in Middlesbrough, : the Langbargh Area Anti-Cuts Campaign is holding two meetings to help mobilise trade unionists and Labour Party activists in the area.

The local anti-cuts campaign is opposed to all cuts, including those being carried out by the Langbargh council which is Labour controlled.

This follows the debate in Cleveland and Whitby GMC to try and force the Labour Group not to implement the cuts.

Socialist Press supporters have been fighting consistently in the local anti-cuts campaign and have been leading the anti-cuts fight inside local ward parties.

The demonstration on February 9 needs full support from trade unionists in the area for a number of reasons.

Firstly to bring to the attention of Labour bureaucrats that local steelworkers are still on strike and need full support Six issues.

Consistent fight

This is the first step towards a consistent fight to remove the Tories and to support the call by the South Yorkshire Trades Council for a general strike against the cuts on February 18.

The 9 February demonstration should be the start of a clear campaign not only to fight the cuts but to boot out the right wing of the Labour Party.

*All . out support for 9 February demonstration!

*Lobby Langbargh Labour councillors.

*Extend the struggle-for a workers' inquiry into the public sector.

*Kick out the Tories!

Build councils of action.

The anti-cuts demonstration will assemble at 11.30 a.m. on Saturday 9 February at Albert Park, Unthorpe Road, Middlesbrough and march to a rally at the Town Hall.

SUBSCRIPTI "A strike will be bad publicity for our union"!

After this the meeting voted against strike action and I was left with no alternative but to take my case to an Industrial Tribunal.

Have you heard the result of this Tribunal?

Yes, after two adjournments I was found to have been "justifiably sacked".

Did you expect to be reinstated as an elected steward?

Of course not. We can only expect justice in workers' courts. I had sixteen witnesses testifying to the treachery of Scanlon and the lies of management.

They sat through a "political' trial and were disgusted by the pro-management bias of the Tribunal.

No, although my branch of the EETPU and Southampton Trades Council have passed resolutions demanding reinstatement, this can only be won by strike action and that is opposed by official scabs.

In eliminating resistance to the Value Added Bonus' management and their union lackeys have won a major victory at Vospers.

£2.00 £4.00 £8.00 £14.00 Senc £9.00 £16.00 Park £10.00 £18.00 for his own sacking.

Nevertheless, in spite of Robinson's political betrayals, this ruthless attack by Edwardes and the AUEW leadership, who blatantly retreated at the time when TGWU workers were already on official strike, is a vicious attack on the whole trade union movement. Robinson must be reinstated by united strike action.

Yes, in solidarity with the steel workers and all other sections of the working class?

Yes. We see the hostility of workers to this Thatcher regime so clearly in this strike, the first steel shutdown since 1926!

This strike has developed into the most crucial confrontation with the Tories' mone tarist policy. Now, not next week, or next month, we must give full support to the steelworkers and extend picketing to the private sector, regardless of any bourgeois court ruling.

This strike must be developed into a General Strike with the sole intention of bringing down the Tories, replacing it with a government mandated to carry out the full socialist It must be turned into a political strike.
