Unwaged Fightback A History of Islington Action Group of the Unwaged, 1980 – 1986

Description

What happens when a group of unemployed trying to organise for themselves has to take on not only the benefits system, but the entrenched interests of the trade union hierarchies and the local council?
Unwaged Fightback is a firsthand account of an unwaged workers’ group in 1980s London, its efforts to establish and run a centre for the unemployed and its relationships to the Miners’ Strike and other struggles of its times.
