Usdaw Conference: £1,000 for jet crash victim
COLLEAGUES of Liam Sweeney, who lost his life in last year’s MH17 air tragedy, have raised £1,000 in memory of the football-mad trade unionist.
The cash was collected at an event dedicated to Mr Sweeney, a supermarket worker and Usdaw member, at the union’s conference.
It’s the union’s first gathering since the Air Malaysia flight was shot down over Ukraine on July 17, killing 198 people.
