TRADE Unionists Against the European Union has welcomed Jeremy Corbyn’s speech in Coventry outlining the Labour Party’s approach to Brexit and rebuilding and transforming Britain with a new internationalist spirit.
Coventry bore the full brunt of Thatcher’s onslaught and her deepening of EU membership. She destroyed more industrial jobs in Coventry than Hitler did in the blitz and the EU ably abetted her by subsidising companies to move factories out of the city to low-wage areas of the EU.
Coventry symbolised the fortunes of the whole country, a workshop of the world turned into a network of foodbanks during the period of EU membership.
