Continued from page 1
Nato allies were unhappy that a
national one-day stoppage and
further industrial sanctions at
Cheltenham and the tracking
station at Bude in Cornwall
would damage strategic cover of
signals traffic and hamper the
surveillance of Soviet warships.
In their announcement on
March 8, 1981, the unions said:
"There will be a range of
selective and disruptive action.
which will affect Britain's secret
communications surveillance
network. There will be both
national and international re-
percussions."
Mr Len Murray, general
secretary of the TUC, is to meet
leaders of the civil service
unions this morning. Last night,
he said: "This decision by the
Foreign Secretary, made with-
out consultation- or ''ttdvande'
notice to unions whatsoever, is
an appalling and unacceptable
denial of basic -rights.,
"Civil servants, whatever
their work, deserve and require
the protection of the union and
proper union representation
just as much as other workers.
"It is grossly offensive for the
Foreign Secretary to imply that
the fact of trade union member-
ship poses any :threat to
national security. .If there are or
may bC problems of any sort the
Foreign 'Secretary should spell
out what they are and' discuss
them with unions concerned,
not jump to the most extreme
measure possible.
..The offer of a tame, state-
controlled union, backed up by'
#1,000, bribes'. is no alternative
to the right of genuine trade;
