Blacklist Firms' Pay-Out Millions!



1. HIGH COURT: 
Construction firms pay out millions to settle more blacklisting claims but the fight for justice continues. 

2. Hillsborough 
Blacklist Support Group would like to pay tribute to the tremendous campaign by the families and supporters of the 96 football fans who lost their lives at Hillsborough.  Their 27 year campaign for justice has finally been vindicated in court with the verdict of unlawful killing.  The Hillsborough campaigns are an inspiration to millions around the world and prove that when we are steadfast in our fight for the truth, even the rich and powerful will be brought to account in the end.
