New exhibition about the General Strike at Newcastle University Library

Newcastle University Special Collections

To mark the 100th anniversary of the British General Strike, this free exhibition reveals how workers, politicians and trade unionists faced the challenge of the General Strike and how its opponents organised to resist it. It will run until 18 October.

It is in Newcastle University's Philip Robinson Library, Level 2 Special Collections & Archives exhibition space, and is part of General Strike 100, which brings together stories, exhibitions and events to remember the strike and its impact on working people.
