BBC Northern Ireland Special on the Belfast Visteon Workers

You may remember that I flew to Belfast three weeks ago to play a gig at the Visteon factory canteen.

I was playing for the Ford Visteon Workers who were occupying the factory.

I felt deeply honoured and proud to be there, providing music to people who had been betrayed by their bosses and decided to fight back.

They had been given 6 minutes notice that they were being made redundant by Ford. But were getting no redundancy pay and no pensions.

BBC Northern Ireland has just produced a special on their plight. Please watch it.

This is the boss’s loyalty.

There’s a short 20 second animated bit at the start before the programme begins.

Thanks to Dan McCallister for letting me know about the programme.

Victory to the Visteon Workers – betrayed by Ford.
