We nearly won very quickly, with the first blacking of the post by the the Cricklewood postmen. Then when legal action was taken, we knew that we were going to be in for a long haul. What happened then was that we organised [an] arguably unprecedented tour of the country by the strikers. They visited, up until the 42nd week, they visited 2000 workplaces throughout the country. And I went with them on some of those visits, but most of them they did by themselves. And what you saw was these diminutive Asian women, normally - sometimes one of the young guys - going into steel mills, engineering factories, dockyards, bringing to the traditional big battalions of the trade union movement a recognition that there was a world of work that they knew nothing about. And they were stunned. They were also angry about the fact that the law had got in the way of the Post Office workers winning it in the first six, seven weeks, as as we very nearly did. So what then happened was that, progressively, some of those who'd stayed inside were joining the strike. We knew that there was a substantial number who were wavering. We decided that what we would do would be to, for one week - a hundred a day, every day - that we would mount a solidarity picket outside. And that was very much designed to give strength to those inside wavering, to encourage them to come out, and indeed it worked. And then on the first day, the Monday - and I'll never forget it - it was June of '97 - '97, beg your pardon, the years have passed on. June of '77. On that first Monday, there was 84 people arrested, and the police appeared out of blue. In fact, one or two of the local police were horrified about what happened. And there was 84 people arrested. And that ended up - I'll never forget - in the 'Evening Standard' afternoon editions, and then TV that night, newspapers the following day. What then happened was the most extraordinary explosion of solidarity from across the trade union movement, so that you had a strong sense of burning anger in the traditional big battalions, with people saying "this is wrong, this should not happen." And then a sense that the strikers were under attack. And by the Wednesday there was 1000 there, and then 2000 and then 3000. And then workers came from all over Britain, culminating in July the 11th 1977, when, even according to the police, who are notoriously bad at counting in these circumstances, there was 20,000 outside of the factory. So there was this out-pouring of solidarity. And of course, what that did was it led to the Cricklewood Post Office workers for a second time deciding that they would black the mail to Grunwick. And they did it, and they then stood up to the most ferocious pressure from their own union to sustain it. They were suspended from work, and these were people, by the way, if you think about it, they were all white, I think bar one Afro-Caribbean guy. White men putting themselves on the line in support of an overwhelmingly female Asian workforce. And this was but a few years after Enoch Powell, Mansfield Hosiery Mills, Imperial Typewriters. It was one of the most remarkable episodes of trade union solidarity in history.
