A RACE to raise cash for a new film about grassroots trade unionism that cuts through right-wing smears was launched yesterday. 

The team of three behind Belonging — the Power Within fired the starting gun on a 45-day campaign to raise at least £40,000. 

Director Morag Livingstone said that’s the minimum needed to make the feature film shown through the eyes of people suffering under — but fighting back against — Tory austerity policies.
