| Description | This file contains notes and partial transcripts of recordings made by Charles Parker at BL's Rover factory at Tyseley.
Pat Geoghan comments both on BL management's approach to communicating with workers [he describes it as propaganda], and also on Banner's depiction of life in a motor factory. He suggests changes to demonstrate the reality of being governed by the pace set by the track and also the limited capabilities of robots in vehicle production. Comments are also recorded on Sir Michael Edwardes' response to a union call for a strike, as are views on Terry Duffy's election as AUEW General Secretary.
Comments on racism within BL are recorded from an unnamed worker who is also a member of the Indian Workers Association [IWA]. |
