Trade Union Freedom At Associated Newspapers
EDM number 164 in 1989-90, proposed by Robin Corbett on 06/12/1989.
That this House deplores the decision of Associated Newspapers, owners of the 'Daily Mail', 'The Mail on Sunday' and the London 'Evening Standard', to withdraw recognition of the National Union of Journalists; welcomes the result of a postal ballot, supervised by the Electoral Reform Society, among 'Daily Mail' journalists who voted 5 to 1 in favour of industrial action to defend trade freedom; believes that a free trade union for journalists is fundamental to press and broadcasting freedom; and calls upon Associated Newspaper to respond to the overwhelming views of its employees and restore collective trade union rights.
This motion has been signed by a total of 86 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
