I believe I was referring to the class and political consciousness ** of the trade union leaders not lagging behind but reflecting and in some cases being more advanced than the mass of the dues-paying members they represent, Many of them were and are activists who rose from the ranks. The pay discrepancies remain shamefully wide. But there is no longer a rapidly growing and militant trade union movement which produced within it a substantial Marxist and anarcho-syndicalist left wing challenging the social democrats for influence and power. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
