Charlotte,

Many thanks for these posts.   They are read and circulated with interest
here in Brisbane.

Is it possible for you to supply more information about the video. Title?
Date? Producer/Director? Where one can get a copy?  My thesis covers Labor
docos, and I am very interested in their use by Trade Unions.

Greetings

Gary
