On 20 June 1966, ITN interviewed John Prescott as he left a National Union of Seamen meeting in Southampton. The meeting had just voted to continue the national strike, now in its 36th day, which called for higher wages and reduced working hours. The strike had already had a serious impact on shipping in London, Liverpool and Southampton causing the government to declare a state of emergency. #johnprescott #nationalunionshipping #nus #union #tradeunionstrike #labourparty #prescott
