Tolpuddle 2022. Not just history. The Tories want to take us back to 1834
It sounds like a slogan but as a full Tolpuddle festival returns this week,Tory ideologues including the leadership candidates would be comfortable with a return to the days of the Martyrs.
Legislation to allow strike breakers during legal strikes underlines the Tories class hatred of working people combining to protect their conditions of employment. Employers combining to undermine them is not an issue
The Tories disgraceful efforts to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda underline that in the Tory mind despatching ‘undesirables ’to far away places remains entirely acceptable
Tolpuddle 2022 is a celebration of our history and organisation but its a reminder that the fights of1834 will need to be fought again 2022 and beyond
