Blacklisted talk – Big Business & Spycops War Against Unions
Tue 1st May, 2018 @ 20:00 - 21:00
The authors of Blacklisted: The Secret War Between Big Business and Union Activists will speak about how major construction firms ran a secret vetting system to deny jobs to thousands of workers deemed politically unacceptable.
Last month the Metropolitan Police finally admitted what we knew for years – that undercover police illegally supplied the blacklist with information on political activists.
Chamberlain and Smith laid out the shocking details in their book, and in this Mayday talk they will bring the story up to date and answer questions from the audience.
