The NUJ in the newsBranches and chapels will be urged to sign up to a campaign to put jobs and journalism at the top of the political and industrial agenda this autumn.
Activists met this evening to begin planning the NUJ’s involvement in what we hope will be a massive showing of union solidarity at the Labour party conference on 27 September.
NUJ Left activists were a visible and vocal presence at what veterans of the Tolpuddle Martyrs festival have described as the “biggest and best” ever.
The gathering is held annually in the Dorset village made famous by six 19th century agricultural workers who took an oath of allegiance to fight to improve wages and conditions for their fellow workers.
