National Textiles workers address students

Sacked workers from the National Textiles factory at Rutherford spoke to students and staff at the University of Western Sydney's Werrington campus on February 17. The workers said that Stan Howard's top management position in the company had had some influence on PM John Howard's decision to use federal government money to pay the workers their full entitlements. A lively question and answer session followed.
