At the recent TUC Congress the whole union movement supported the campaign for compensation for victims of Pleural Plaques. The video about the victims of Plaques has received some fantastic exposure - it was played on the BBC news numerous times and lots of newspapers have written articles about it as well.
The campaign is continuing to pick up momentum - now we need to pile on the pressure for a final push for justice. The Government are currently making their decision about whether or not to change the law on Plaques - we need to make sure that they know the strength of feeling out there so they do the right thing.
There is now a tool on the website which lets you send an email straight to two of the key players in this issue - Peter Mandelson and Alistair Darling - which calls on them to do the right thing and provide the help that sufferers of Plaques need. Sending your email will take less than 30 seconds - but as thousands of people are involved in this campaign, if everyone acts then together we can make a big difference.
