Forty Days of Tucker J. by Robert Leeson (Fontana Lions 1983)



Tucker walked outside. Paddy was still there.

Hello, Peter, then. I see you've joined the toiling masses.'

'Wish I had, Paddy. Are you out of work, then?'

Paddy smiled: 'No, I'm not. I'm doing this for a friend. Just to give a hand, like.'

Tucker took a leaflet and walked away reading it.

'Fight for the Right to Work' said the leaflet.

They must be joking.

I'm pretty sure I owned that and another Tucker post-Grange Hill book along with numerous of the Grange Hill, ahem, novels themselves.
