MCFly 030- Wind power to the people

The workers occupying the Vestas wind-turbine factory on the Isle of Wight ended their occupation on Friday August 7, after the Danish multinational got the right paperwork to evict them. Trade union activists have been busy around the country - including in Manchester - collecting signatures for a petition to nationalise the factory, and to raise funds for the sacked workers. On Tuesday August 11 a Vestas worker will be speaking at a solidarity meeting. 7pm start, Friends Meeting House, 6 Mount St. manc_sfe@hotmail.com or savevestas.wordpress.com for further info
