Yesterday, the news broke that Aylesford Newsprint was going into administration. Cue earnest tweets from earnest politicians, earnestly wringing their hands for BBC South East.
The sight of parliamentary cretins, stranded on a windswept industrial estate and hi-vis clad- it's almost like there's an election on.
Non-Cretin TUSC candidate for Chatham and Aylesford, railway worker and RMT type Richard Andrzejak said:
Aylesford Newsprint recycles paper into newspaper. They also do a lot of the recycling for councils across the region.
Clearly, that's a good thing!
Instead of the £70billion in government subsidies to nuclear power, we should nationalise Aylesford Newsprint and expand its recycling capacity.
Not only would this save the jobs of existing staff, it could, with proper public investment create jobs with huge social value.
If it's good enough for the banks, it's good enough for Aylesford Newsprint.
We send solidarity to the workers at Aylesford Newsprint and want to get in touch to help build a campaign to fight back.
