MORE than 1,000 trade unionists tuned in to Saturday’s “fast and furious” online meeting — the first of a two-parter — to discuss ways of organising an unemployment fightback.
In addition to those inside the Zoom room, hundreds took part as the event was beamed live on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. The film of the event will also appear on the Communist Party’s website: www.communistparty.org.uk.
Chaired by trades council activist Moz Greenshields, the meeting hit the ground running with an opening exchange between event co-organisers Mollie Brown and Bill Greenshields. They set the scene with a thoughtful but militant tone.
