The battle for Wisconsin!

The Unions, with significant public support, are mobilising in Wisconsin against Governor Walker's, a Republican, proposals to end collective bargaining rights and to basically 'bust' the unions. His ideological campaign is being partly funded by the Koch Brothers, billionaire right-wing 'Tea Party' supporters.
The unions are seeing this as the most important battle since 1981 when Reagan took on the air controllers and activists are pouring into the state from all over the US. Over 70,000 marched last Saturday and there are plans for demonstrations in all the state capitals.

This really rings alarm bells for me not just because of our own ideological battle with the Condems but because of the activities of LSSI, the US based private library company, in the UK, who are vehemently anti-union.
