The official strike by TASS members employed by Christopher Relf Ltd. in Redditch continues now into its sixth week.
The strike is both for union recognition and against the victimisation of two TASS members by the management.
Despite attempts by scab lorry drivers to break the strike and the efforts of their supporters in fulltime T&GWU positions, Relf's goods (they package spare parts) remain completely blacked by British Leyland - the outlet for 90% of the firm's business.
While this support is maintained there seems no likelihood of the company winning the dispute but IASs is now appealing for Inancial support for the strikers. Such support and any communications should be sent to: M. Cannons (Office Secretary),. charles Street, Redditch, Wores.
