Troublemakers At Work has published its new How To Win A Strike briefing by Ian Allinson. You can download a PDF version of this for free. You can order an ePub version via troublemakersat.work/win.
We are also looking to produce it as a printed pamphlet. Let us know if you would be interested in a bulk order so that we can gauge demand. For more information, see troublemakersat.work/win.
We are working on a presentation to accompany the briefing – if you want a Troublemakers At Work speaker at your meeting to talk about the briefing, please contact us.
Our second AGM was held on 24th January 2026. It included a public session on Countering the Far Right at Work.
As well as online events we are now working toward our first regional Troublemakers conferences in Leeds, Edinburgh and Sheffield.
Thank you to everyone who helped make our Troublemakers At Work 2025 Conference a success.
You can join Troublemakers At Work to help us continue the good work, or you can sign-up to keep updated here.
The video from our May meeting – Strikes & Solidarity – where we heard from a Unite member from Birmingham bins and Joel Mayfield (Sheffield refuse striker) for updates on current disputes and how you can support them, and a discussion about the state of workplace resistance after nearly a year of Labour in office, is available here.
Troublemakers At Work is a network of rank-and-file trade unionists in Britain, launched after a conference in Manchester in July 2023. We are organised by a democratic committee, without affiliation to political parties or particular unions. We support each other in organising to win change in our workplaces and unions. We held further national conferences in 2024 and 2025. In 2026 we plan a series of regional conferences instead.
