Although we lost touch many years ago, one of the shop stewards in the picture, Terry Ford was a very dear friend of mine in City of London Poly. Through him, I met Mike Cooley (read “Architect or Bee” if you want to understand the potential of Socialism) and several of the others. What was striking about all of them (with the exception of Terry, who was larger than life in every way) was that they were so ordinary and were completely in awe of the people they represented who had come up with some of the incredible ideas which came out of the initiative. As Hillary says here, this really was a bottom upwards exercise and should be studied by anyone serious about industrial democracy.
