Plot Summary

Stanley Windrush, an earnest, upper-class young man fresh from an Oxford education, finds himself unable to secure employment through the usual channels of family connections and social privilege. In desperation, he takes a factory job at his uncle’s missile manufacturing firm, Donavon Donavon Industries, innocent of the fact that both management and labor have been exploiting the company for their own ends.

Stanley’s uncle and the other directors are running a scheme to sell cheap arms to a developing nation and pocket the profits, while the factory workers — led by the magnificently self-important shop steward Fred Kite — are equally devoted to minimizing their work while maximizing their pay. The system operates in a state of perfect mutual corruption until the naive Stanley arrives and, through sheer innocence and genuine hard work, disrupts everything.

When Stanley proves so efficient that he dramatically increases productivity, both sides are horrified. Management fears their crooked profit margins will be exposed, and the union fears that a precedent for actual hard work will destroy their cozy arrangement. Fred Kite calls a strike, which escalates from a local dispute into a national industrial crisis that paralyzes the entire country.

The satire is merciless in its treatment of all parties. Management is portrayed as corrupt, cynical, and completely indifferent to either their workers or their country. The unions are shown as bloated, bureaucratic organisms more interested in political posturing and protecting their privileges than in serving their members. And the politicians who attempt to mediate are revealed as the most useless of all. Only Stanley, the innocent fool, maintains any genuine concern for doing the right thing — and even he is ultimately co-opted by the very forces he sought to reform.
