The campaign to elect Jerry Hicks as general secretary of UNITE is stepping us workplace leaflettings to help turn Britian’s biggest union, and principal contributor to the Labour party, into a fighting union. The campaign has released an updated campaign leaflet as well, which is online at http://bit.ly/jerryhicks4gs.
Hicks recently took his campaign to one of the country’s largest building sites, the BBC’s new MediaCityUK, which is not unionised. Hick posted a clip on ‘Youtube’ of in which he discusses with Colin and Graham, two blacklisted electricians from Manchester. The video is online at http://bit.ly/MediaCity and in the frame below. The campaign is eager to get feedback about the fight at the Salford Quays site.
The campaign can now be contacted by email at jerryhicks4gs2010@yahoo.co.uk.

Hey,
I’m starting a new socialist blog called Rosa’s Ghost. I
was hoping you might add it to your links page. It would be a great
help. Thanks in advance.
