I'm really annoyed about this issue. What the f*ck gives employers the right to organise against employees in the form of blacklists? This is a political issue and the companies involved in this should be held up and targetted in the same way unions are held up and targetted by the Tories , today and in the last 30 years, as to interfering with the political process.
The link here provides detail of the culprits. This practice is absolutely outrageous and I find it astounding that Labour promised to deal with the blacklisting scandal pre 1997 election but have done f*ck all about it.

If you're interested in reading a bit more about this story (which I wrote with Rob Evans for The Guardian) then I've collated links to it and allied reports on my blog at http://takingoutthetrash.typepad.co.uk/taking_out_the_trash/2009/03/the-last-roundup-on-blacklisting-for-now.html

Ive taken the liberty of using your posts on a website that I use
http://www.royalmailchat.co.uk/home.php
but have given a link to your blog.
It's been going on for years and years, when I worked for a large building company they had a list of people that as a foreman you were not allowed to employ, when I went to work for another company they had the same list.
