MT members took part in a
service at Crewe cemetery
earlier this month to remember
George Fletcher and Edward
McQuade who answered the call to
fight the rise of fascism in Spain in
1936.
Docker, trade unionist and
International Brigade volunteer
Jack Jones was quoted at the event:
"The march had started with
Mussolini and had gained terrible
momentum with Hitler and was
being carried forward by Franco.
For most young people there was a
feeling of frustration, but some
determined to do anything that
seemed possible, even if it meant
death, to try to stop the spread of
fascism”.
May their names be among the
heroes of labour.
