The implications of this proposal will be discussed more fully in the context of the public services as a whole (Chapter I I). At some later date in the I g83- 8 Parliament the Government is expected also to withdraw trade union immunity from strikes which are in breach of procedural agreements. In November I983, the I98o--82 legislation was seriously tested for the first time. Arising from a closed shop dispute in the Stockport print works of the Stockport Messenger, the National Graphical Association (NGA) put secondary pickets on another of the company's print works at Warrington.

The individual trade unions are wholly autonomous. Their greatest strength lies in the avoidance of overlap between them. There are only 17 industrial trade unions which now contain 37 per cent of the labour force. All the manual workers in a single industry are in the same trade union, whether they are metalworkers or carpenters, concreters or floor-sweepers. The white collar workers are members of another union - again only one. Thus, in collective bargaining, be it at regional or corporate level, there are only one or at most two bargainers on the labour side.

Strikes and lockouts are thus unlawful if they are in breach of a collective agreement; also if they are for any purpose other than the improvement ofterms and conditions of employment; so political strikes or sympathy strikes are unlawful. While it might appear easy to claim that such a strike is concerned with terms and conditions of employment it may not be so easy to find credible demands for improvements which do not fall outside a collective agreement currently in force, and in practice political motivation of strikes is very rare.
