Sunday September 5th, Burston School Strike Rally,
Posted on | July 30, 2010 | No Comments
with Tony Benn, Red Flags, and Ian Saville’s Magic for Socialists – An annual rally is held each September in the Norfolk village of Burston to remember the Strike School. This school represented the ‘longest strike in history’ when pupils from Burston school went on strike to protest at the sacking of their teachers; Tom and Kitty Higdon. The pupils though, were not having their free-thinking teachers sacked, and went on strike, effectively creating a new school.
Among others Norwich Stop the War Coalition, Norwich Palestine Solidarity Campaign and Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament will have stalls
