   Why did Gair resign?

   • The battle for control of the A.L.P. was waged both within and outside the party. Gair's relationship with the A.W.U., and especially its secretary R. J. J. Bukowski, degenerated to such an extent that the union eventually formed an unholy alliance with the T.L.C. to bring him down.
