Attila the Stockbroker lends his support

And it wasn't just local politicians lending their support - legendary performance poet and all-round agitator Attila the Stockbroker was also on this morning's picket line with this pithy sign.

He also gave us this message of support:

"A local paper should be produced locally by local journalists, not in a different county!
"The Argus is an important part of our local culture. One message for Newsquest’s greedy board - reinstate the Argus subeditors and pay all the staff a decent wage!"
