A man has pleaded guilty to running a covert database containing personal information used to blacklist more than 3,000 construction workers...full story here at Computer Weekly and a follow-up item for the same magazine by me here.
Good background on Kerr dug up by The Guardian, including Kerr's Economic Leaguee= links.
It was a long drive up this morning to cover the court case in Macclesfield and then something of a farce as the court booked was too small for the union people, press and solicitors.
But Kerr's solicitor eventually made his client's guilty plea to breaking data protection laws and he will now go to crown court for sentencing.
Below is a picture of some of the blacklisted construction workers demonstrating outside the court.
