KILLED BY A COMPANY? - NO RIGHTS FOR YOU!

Home Secretary David Blunkett has decided that passengers injured in rail crashes and workers hurt in industrial accidents will not be treated as victims of crime in the same way as all other victims of crime.

This will lead to thousands of passengers and workers whose injuries are caused by criminal failings by companies being denied the right to present a victim
statement to the court.

Showings of the Simon Jones Memorial Campaign film NOT THIS TIME are being organised across the country throughout July, with the tour kicking off at the Glastonbury Festival on 29th June. If you want to help organise a showing in your area please email  action@simonjones.org.uk
