Ron Marsden is one of the few old anarchists in the area to get involved in trade union and community affairs: for years he has done work for the Salford Unemployed Centre helping claimants fill-in forms. If he has now defected to the side of the union bureaucrats to gag free speech, it reflects badly on the anarchist movement as a whole.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043332942481206469.post-24159022876522676182015-06-01T21:16:15.015+01:002015-06-01T21:16:15.015+01:00Unfortunately I was unable to attend the May meeti...Unfortunately I was unable to attend the May meeting of the Greater Manchester Community Branch.
