A teach-in they won’t advertise

Shssss! Something to hide

Partnership or Struggle – a teach-in they won’t advertise

Quite what it is about ordinary working people getting together to talk about a ‘response to the financial crisis’ isn’t that clear – MP’s talk about it, business people talk about it even Union spokesperson talk about it - the prospect however of the subjects of all this discussion (workers) wanting to have a go has unsettled some. Among them GOclassifieds where we had hoped to spend a very limited advertising budget.

No can do - our advert referred to “ websites* which contain propaganda” and the email continues “ Even without the websites we cannot place them in community notices. “ You can find all the emails here.

Here’s the propaganda they didn’t want you to see:

Community Notice for the Workers Rights Campaign

"A Workers Response to the Financial Crisis”
A teach-in organised by the Workers Rights Campaign

1-00pm
Canterbury WEA, 59 Gloucester Street

NOTE: *one of our number was placing two advertisements one about the Cuba Hurricane Appeal Gig for the Christchurch Cuba Friendship Society and ours.
