Tony you have got to be joking!!!

Have you looked at the speakers:

Most of them are the problem not the solution and look at the partners:

I guess they didn't like the http://www.thebcgroup.org.uk/ conference and decided to start their own.

[TonyGosling]

What speakers do you have a problem with?
I say fair play to them.

Giving this a plug as quite a lot of NUJ activists are involved with making these events happen.
As people wake up to their rights being stolen I reckon we need to be there exploding the lie that's the excuse for this Nazi style clampdown.
If you have any leaflets or DVDs that need a home please take them along & dish them out.

Great standard of discussion at the Bristol event today, even if the politicians were lacklustre.
Labour didn't turn up, Green were rather limp, Libdems and Tories eagerly jockying for position but without committing to much.
Was good to hear this linked to the whole destruction of trades unions/neo-liberal agenda.
The corporations have finished co-opting the state and the unions, now they're co-opting individuals too as if they were the competition to be taken out.
