About this listen

Our special guest for this episode is No Sweat convenor JayKerr. He reminds us that when NS set upshop nearly 30 years ago, “sweatshop” was a term little understood. Changing perceptions and understanding is just one of the many achievements of Jay and his colleagues. Our discussion dives deep into the politics and practicalities fo consumer boycotts, how to give meaning and life to international trade union solidarity, and what this can contribute to union building at home. The key takeaway - we can all make a difference as individualsand as part of the union movement. Visit nosweat.org.uk for more on the campaign. For signposting and background see Simon’s post on the Loudshirts blog.
