May 05, 1974 - T.U.C. leader faces abuse as he leeds a back-to-work march in Ulster.:The seventh day of the general strike in Ulster brought more chaos with another 24 hours of severe power outs. Letalists claimed that the poor turn-out for the back-to-work marches was a humiliating defeat for Mr. Len Murray, the T.U.C. General-Secretary, who led the march into the Belfast shipyard despite being pelted with eggs, tomatoes, and other missiles, and lets of abuse. Slightly more tan 100 joined in the march. Photo shows Mr. Len Murray (centre dark coat) leading the trade union march to the Belfast shipyard under the protection of soldiers of the Prince of Wales Regiment and Police riot squad
