The first major meeting of Cambridge CSE hit the headlines in the local press because of a clause in a resolution passed unanimously which called on the town's new Labour M.P., Mr. Robert Davies, to vote against any antitrade union legislation. The local paper's attempts to characterise C.S.E, as a "breakaway" group, however, were successfully countered by letters from local rank and file Labour Party members who are active in the work of the centre. The meeting which attracted over 20 people on a Sunday afternoon, was addressed by John Palmer, and afterwards a committee of seven, representat= ive of all sections of the local labour movement, was elected to plan future activities. The secretary of Cambridge C.S.E. is now Martin Housden of 38, Warkworth St., Cambridge. |
