The following resolution, submitted by TfL no.1 branch, was carried unanimously by the July meeting of the Regional Council ...

Haiti humanitarian lawyer Mario Joseph was a guest speaker invited to the UK to appear at various venues, including the RMT Black and Ethnic Minority Committee. He was refused entry into the UK for the most obscure of reasons.

The refusal to admit Mario Joseph is an insult to all who care about Haiti and its people.

The LTRC ask the RMT to call upon the trade union movement, with their relevant contacts within the political arena to show their displeasure at this taking place.
