We still have some of these left for the low low price of just £5.
We will let you pay us more though.
This pamphlet about the #GeneralStrike100 in #Sheffield by Unite shop steward Edd Mustill comes highly recommended.
This year has seen a bumper crop of writing by grassroots trade unionists about the history of our movement, and the victories and losses of ordinary workers in past generations.
Contact @ShefTUC for a copy.
Edd also contributed to our own book about the General Strike which is available now from roughtradebooks.com/collecti…

Here's detail from the thread about our dispute: Aug 2025-New City campus buildings open while SHU fails to secure a teaching partner for the London campus. These projects reflect a pattern of ill‑advised building priorities, favouring real estate over staff and students #HE #UCU

#GeneralStrike26 centenary Pitch & Strike inspired by the 1921 'Soup Kitchen' footballers - women who played football to raise funds in striking mining communities. They faced a footballing ban at end of 1921. We commemorate & celebrate their activism & political struggles
