The result of the teachers! ballot is fine news, Not merely because it means that an important section of the movement is to take militant action but also beceuse action by the teachers will create a stir in the working class as a whole, The rest of the labour movement must, of course, support the teachers, In particular it must campaign against the outrageous hints that teachers will be victimised for trade union action, We must insist the Government prevent any victimisation and that Labour~controlled local authorities set an example by pledging themselves to respect the trade union rights of teachers. So far there is no indication that Labour local authorities have behaved any differently from Tory-controlled ones in local authority organisations, Labour's Representatives on these bodies must be called to order.
