MORNING STAR shareholders saluted assistant business manager Bernadette Keaveney at its AGM on Saturday as she marked 21 years to the day since starting work for the paper.
Ms Keaveney received a standing ovation as she was presented with a cake and thanks from the management committee of the People’s Press Printing Society (PPPS), the readers’ co-op that publishes the Morning Star.
PPPS chair Bob Oram paid tribute to Ms Keaveney for her tireless work to boost the paper’s circulation and engage with readers, supporters, trade unions and the trade to get the “daily miracle” into the shops, at demonstrations and to conferences, while tributes also poured in online for “a star of the Morning Star” team.
