One year on from the suspicious death in custody of their brother, Sean Rigg, his family and their supporters marked the anniversary with a vigil at Brixton Police Station on Friday evening.
It was good to see comrades there from the RMT and PCS - and I have undertaken to raise the case within UNISON. Trade unionists have a compelling interest in civil liberties - and there are few more fundamental rights than the right not to lose your life in the custody of agents of the state charged with the protection of the public.

A hat tip to Louise for pursuing this issue on behalf of the Labour Representation Committee.
Cheers Jon, thanks for the link.
