Message of Solidarity to NUJ Doncaster.

A copy of our message of solidarity to the striking journalists in South Yorkshire.

"Hi,

Just a quick message from our branch in Rotherham.

We fully support your indefinite strike, and are encouraged by your determination and solidarity! That you also have declared 'no confidence' in your editor-in chief with one voice, only serves to heighten our admiration for your struggle. We, in Rotherham, are sure that your example of standing up to the powers that be and of supporting 'local campaigning journalism' will help to deepen the scrutiny, now emerging in the mainstream, of corporate control and ownership of the media, to challenge it and ultimately to overthrow it!

We anticipate your success in this struggle with sentiments of respect and solidarity!

Chris Bingham on behalf of the Rotherham branch of the Socialist party"
