Support of the NUT

The London region of the NUT threw its weight behind the HOPE not hate campaign yesterday when they backed our 17 April mobilisation for Barking & Dagenham. During a speech where I outlined exactly what the borough's education policy could look like under the BNP, I suggested that they find 25 people to leaflet one ward on the day. Several delegates, however, thought that they could at least double that, including the union's new Deputy General Secretary who promised to be there.

With the BNP battling to take control of the council, and so the area's educational services, the support of the NUT is both welcome and vital.
