Summary

Ste Purse from Labrats International about the UK Atomic Testing programme in the 1950s and its ramifications. Neil Atkinson hosts this second in a series of podcasts highlighting organisations which are part of the Hillsborough Law campaign. This is, in places, quite a difficult listen. We'd encourage anyone listening to this to ensure they feel they are in a position to do so before the podcast begins. No one has to listen to something which they may be deeply upset by. The Hillsborough Law campaign can be found here and there is an event at Nova Scotia in Mann Island details of which are here. Thanks to Ste for taking the time and telling his story.
