	Trades Union Congress - A celebration of the life of Rt Hon Lord Murray of Epping Forest 1922-2004
		It was so again a couple of years later when, because of the effects of industrial action at GCHQ on the flow of intelligence between the United Kingdom and the United States, the Prime Minister insisted on removing from the national unions their rights of representation in GCHQ.
		My memory of Len is one of great affection and respect for a highly intelligent quick-minded and plain-speaking man, a man of great integrity, as has already been said, a competent and effective representative of the TUC and a man of thought as well as a man of action.
		I want to begin by saying, as some of you will know, that Lionel Murray not only was born in very constrained and humble circumstances as the son of a farm working family in Shropshire, but also he lost both his parents at the age of eight in industrial accidents, or more precisely agricultural accidents.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Bond, Edward
		In the case of his early plays, in particular, Bond is also very concerned with the reality of characters he is presenting, and with the specific tasks that they are engaged in – from Len mending a chair in Saved to Lear tearing down the defensive wall around his kingdom which he had previously built.
		In his theatre work Bond is acutely aware – an awareness he passes on to the audience in graphic, unequivocal stage images – of individuals' place in (and their moral responsibility within) society.
		One of Bond's constant complaints when aiming at the inadequacy of the theatre system in Britain is that there is much more willingness to accept theatre-theory and the challenge of new forms of staging and presentation on the Continent of Europe.
