Wiltshire History Day

Organised by White Horse Trades Union Council on 6th November 2010 at St. Margaret’s Hall Bradford-on-Avon from 10am.

Talk subjects include Chartists and Swing rebellions in  Wiltshire as well as strikes in Swindon.

You can find more details about this event on Socialist Unity where you can read blogger Andy Newman’s assertion that BRHG take “a fundamentally anti-working class and anti-trade union approach” (comment 27). He goes on to say: “there is a smart alec, middle class, know-all-ism about these so called ‘radicals’.” He also calls BRHG “smart arse anarchist”. (comment 49)… gosh.

Despite the fact that Andy might be there it should be a fascinating and informative event.
