SUMMARY:End the Blacklist - North East Conference
DESCRIPTION:More than 3\,000 people had files on the illegal construction industry blacklist run by the Consulting Association when it was seized in 2009. Most major construction firms used the list yet none have faced any penalty.  \nThe personal files contained information on political activity that came from police. This wasn’t police upholding the law\, it was police breaking the law to uphold corporate profit. \nNumerous blacklisted workers and activists have been granted core participant status at the public inquiry into undercover policing. \nThe practice of blacklisting did not end with the closure of the Consulting Association’s list. Blacklisting of construction workers has long been a curse of the industry and in recent years the ‘dirty dealings’ of leading companies through their undercover Consulting Agency has been widely exposed and they have condemned in the courts. But the issue is much more widespread and the battle between big business and union activists is still to be won.  \nThis first North East conference is organised by Tyne & Wear CATUC and the Construction Safety Campaign\, and sponsored by Unite North East\, Yorkshire and Humberside Region.  \nSpeakers include Dave Smith\, co-author of ‘Blacklisted‘\, and Kate Parker\, director of a film looking at the wider implications.  \nFree entry\, although booking tickets is advisable. Refreshments and lunch provided.  \nFor further information or to register please contact twcatuc@aol.co.uk \nSpread the word with the Facebook event.\n \nShare this:FacebookTwitterTumblrEmailMoreLinkedInRedditPinterestPocketPrint

SUMMARY:United Families and Friends Campaign annual procession
DESCRIPTION:The United Families and Friends Campaign (UFFC) is a national coalition of families and friends of those that have died in the custody of police and prison officers as well as those who are killed in immigration detention and secure psychiatric hospitals in the UK. \nEvery year since 1999\, the UFFC holds an annual remembrance procession from Trafalgar Square to Downing Street to remember loved ones who have died in custody. \nThe UFFC was set up by the families who had lost loved ones at the hands of the state to challenge the injustice in the system. It began as a network of black families because disproportionate numbers of BME people were dying in police custody. It has now grown to include families of all races that die in custody. \nRecent deaths in the US and the Black Lives Matter movement have raised the issue of police killlings of civilians to an international level. Come and support the families of those who have died at the hands of police\, prison and secure medical units in the UK. \nThe UFFC network includes the families of: Leon Patterson\, Roger Sylvester\, Rocky Bennett\, Harry Stanley\, Sean Rigg\, Habib ‘Paps’ Ullah\, Azelle Rodney\, Christopher Alder\, Brian Douglas\, Joy Gardner\, Paul Jemmott\, Ricky Bishop\, Mikey Powell\, Jason McPherson\, Sarah Campbell\, Jimmy Mubenga\, Paul Coker\, Mark Duggan\, Sheku Bayoh\, Olaseni Lewis\, Thomas Orchard and many others. \nMany of these are among the 18 families police have admitted were spied on by undercover officers. We can be confident the real total is much higher. \nThe UFFC annual procession is supported by: 4WardEver\, Migrant Media\, INQUEST\, BirminghamStrong\, Justice 4 All\, Tottenham Rights\, London Campaign Against Police & State Violence\, LARAG\, Newham Monitoring Project (NMP)\, Pan African Society Community Forum\, Defend the Right to Protest\, Joint Enterprise Not Guilty by Association (JENGbA)\, Institute of Race Relations\, Edge Fund\, UNISON\, RMT\, FBU\, UNITE\, UCU. \nWe have been marching for the past 19 years and campaigning for much longer – join us this year! \nAssemble 28 October 12 Noon at Trafalgar Square for a silent procession along Whitehall followed by a noisy protest at Downing Street. \n“We look forward to seeing you – No Justice No Peace” \nShare this:FacebookTwitterTumblrEmailMoreLinkedInRedditPinterestPocketPrint
