The single proposal dealing with the hours of work took a remarkably
defensive stance. Rather than calling for the reduction of working
time ("the limitation of the working day") it simply called for an end
to reforms aimed as extending hours."
"Stop labour law reforms aimed at extending hours of work and making
it easier for employers to fire or retrench workers."
Well, excuuuuse me, but this strikes the ol' Sandwichman as passive to
the point of inert. But I won't pretend to be surprised. Reduction of
the hours of work, once the conditio sine qua non of the workers'
movement has become the elephant in the room, about which one must not
speak.
