Happy Half Century to Montrose (Monty) Matty. Former top UNISON Caretaking steward and Safety rep.
A staunch (but born again) Labour Party member.
Seen here on the picket line outside 723 Commercial Road E14 during the month long Tower Hamlets Housing Strike 1999.
His wife Sue is throwing a Party for him which is taking place in a Community Centre in the Isle of Dogs. They are promising fresh sea food from nearby Billingsgate Market.
Montrose will protest that this picture does not accurately reflect his very active support of the Strike at the time.
However, surely...the camera never lies :)
