When the union attempts to make the Northamptonshire Evening Telegraph a closed shop, one man stands in its way-the paper's editor. While the pickets man the gates, Ron Hunt gathers the news, writes the news, subs the news and assembles the news. In a working day this one man has covered the work of 60 striking journalists. But to the pickets who are striving to achieve 100 per cent union membership, Hunt is no more than a blackleg and a scab. As the strike continues and tensions mount, a civilised difference of opinion hardens into anger, bitterness, and rancour, and finally boils over into hatred and violence. |
