Review: Strike Back: Ernie Roberts Ernie Roberts who died earlier this year will be remembered as a committed socialist and trade unionist who came to prominence in the seventies and eighties both for his leading role in the Anti Nazi League and later on as MP for Hackney North. This autobiography covers all aspects of Roberts' involvement in the labour movement from his earliest activities while still a teenager through to his experiences as an MP. The book provides an interesting insight into the internal workings of the British labour movement. More importantly, it will remain as a lasting epitaph to a man who, unlike many politicians in an increasingly principle-free world, never for one moment left any doubt as to whose side he was on.
