On a related note:
I’d imagine that Declan Bree (who is organising the Sligo May Day events) will be delighted at the news that Ken Loach is making a film on Jim Gralton. Declan, a tireless promoter of the labour history of the north-west, ran a series of Gralton history weekends in the 1980s and 1990s, thereby helping to ensure that the Leitrim communist deportee was not forgotten.
