BEN CHACKO sees an exhibition that charts the memorable struggle to have union rights restored to workers at the intelligence hub GCHQ in Cheltenham

AT THE start of the year, trade unionists marched through Cheltenham in defiance of the Conservatives’ attack on the right to strike.
The Cotswold town was picked to commemorate another battle to defend trade union rights 40 years earlier, when Thatcher banned trade unions at intelligence hub GCHQ, headquartered there.
Now Civil Service union PCS has unveiled a 40th anniversary exhibition to mark the start of that historic struggle. If you have a spare hour in London over the next month, pop into the union’s Clapham HQ and take a look — it’s open to the public.
