Thanks for this post.

I remember a while back you said that a local which had been more into
unofficial action than others also had a lot of support for the LPA.

I suppose I just find it very hard to get my head around active support
for a Labor Party going alongside unnofficial organisation. But are the
LPA activists semi dissident officials, with passive support from rank +
file activists ( like the SLP + RMT ) , or is it more rank + file driven
than I would expect ?

Is there actually such a thing as left wing bureaucrats in the British sense
in the UTU ( or US unions in general ) ?

Curious,

Adam.
